Yup, been there done that. Did a cap with the stuff. Results were excellent. 
This was before Auto-Actifeed, and way before I really had a clue as to what I 
was doing. What you are doing is sewing a monofilament thread (fishing line) on 
fabric. I got mine from Madeira. When I pulled on it it broke fairly easily 
(worse than rayon)so I upped the material feed by 4 points over what I thought 
I needed. Slowed the machine down to 800 spm and loosened the bobbin just a 
hair. This stuff is almost like a 60 wt thread so I adjusted the density as 
well, as I recall I dropped it .4 per setting in the auto-density settings. 
Made some glow in the dark caps, cool, way cool. Am not sure what you are doing 
with it but this worked for me.
