We sew most embroidery with 40 weight thread but when we want very small, crisp lettering, we drop to a 60 weight thread so it isn't heavy and leaves nice, crisp tiny letters. We also use a smaller needle such as a 65/9. Typically, we sew with a 75/11. Your suggestion to use 40 weight for small, crisp lettering throws me. Yes, for most of our lettering we do use 40 weight thread---I am talking really small lettering like .18.
