Hi Betsy. Commercial thread comes on 6,000 yard put ups. I have a bunch of it
in black, green, white and Navy blue from the sewing that I do. If you are
doing patches onto leather you might want to consider a walking foot or a
roller foot machine; a walking foot moves heavier fabrics, and a roller foot
rolls leaving no marks to the leather. For just patches, a normal cotton
wrapped poly core SHOULD work, but I'd go with the heavier #69 poly UV
resistant. These jackets will be on their backs out in the sun for YEARS, and
once the patches are on they generally won't be coming off again. For #69 UV
resistant thread, I use outdoor wilderness fabrics, www.owfinc.com.
(http://www.owfinc.com.) Please tell them I referred you if you decide to
order from them. They have given me super customer service, and a very good
product at an extremely fair price.
Hope this helps!
Judy Wilson
