Hello
It is a short sewing thread, I use colored basting thread for exemple.
Fold in two, you use it in the center of a flower, or a leaf, when you
know you will have to end the round.
This thread prepare a loop and you come and find the place to hang your
stich and end the rond part of the center. When working the "fil
miracle" two strands have the loop at low side and liberated two
strands upper side, the oposite of your pairs . You can have one bobbin
going in the loop ("fil miracle") and after gently pull through.
The colored thread is taken off when the center is ended.
I take it in my box with tools (divider, pins, ...) for next used.
regards
