401 Stitch Thread Usage Guidelines*

Mathematical formula for determining thread usage for each line of stitching

4 + [ 2 x (thickness of seam) x (1 / length of 1 stitch)] =  inches of thread use per inch seam

 

*Guidelines for estimating thread usage for each line of stitching

Light weight fabric - 4 yards of thread for each yard sewn
Medium weight fabric - 6 yards of thread for each yard sewn
Heavy weight fabric - 9 yards of thread for each yard sewn


* Actual consumption may vary
