Hello All! Please forgive if I am asking the wrong question here--but is it
possible to hand sew the garment with linen thread? My curiosity stems from a
(vintage) child's silk dress that I own. It is completely hand-sewn. When I
checked Hedgehog Handworks the finest linen thread offered is 100/3. Wm.
Booth, Draper offers 90/2 & it says on his site that it is suitable for sewing
handkerchief weight linen. Usual disclaimers, no relationship to the sellers,
satisfied customer etc. There are books, online resources & (occasionally)
classes available if you decide to work in hand. Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Palm
Beach Gardens, FL, USA
