This incredible 80wt 2-ply cottonized polyester thread carries a textured matte finish that has been treated to behave more like cotton and eliminate stretch. Delicate but incredibly strong, this lightweight thread ensures stitching becomes less bulky and designs softer while the fine weight also allows for more acute miters and rounder and smoother curves. DecoBob™ is also an ideal bobbin thread and is available in Class 15, L and M size pre-wound bobbins in reusable plastic casings.

What makes DecoBob™ different from regular polyester thread?
DecoBob™ is a cottonized polyester, giving it a soft, matte texture that behaves like cotton while retaining polyester strength. Its lightweight 80wt construction reduces bulk and improves stitch precision.Can I use DecoBob™ in the needle AND bobbin?
Yes! While DecoBob™ is an ideal bobbin thread with its lightweight characteristics, it works beautifully in the needle for delicate topstitching, appliqué, monogramming, and even piecing to help significantly reduce bulk in the seams.How does DecoBob™ help achieve sharper miters and more precise curves?
Its lightweight nature allows for a shorter stitch length to be used while keeping the seams flat. The shorter stitch length enables more precise piecing, resulting in crisp angles and smooth curves.Related products
