The antique blue tone is a classic textile colour that matches both textured cotton fabric, washed jersey knit fabric and canvas. The colour is neutral enough to look discreet on most materials, yet it gives a slight colour cast when seen on white fabric – making it ideal for sewing blue or grey indigo denim and vintage-inspired clothing. The polyester quality ensures the thread does not shrink or lose colour through washing.

Sewing thread is primarily purchased by small clothing factories, fabric shops with sewing services, and hobby sewists working on larger projects. Antique blue works as a universal colour for both classic and contemporary clothing design – from uniforms to designer clothing inspired by vintage workwear.

A common question among sewing beginners is: “Should I buy thread in the same colour as the fabric?” Rule number one is that the thread colour should match the back side of the fabric or be one tone darker than the front. Antique blue works best on grey and blue bases – and functions as a detail accent on neutral cotton.

Wash garments at 30-40 degrees. Avoid coloured washes with white – the thread may release minimal colour in the first wash.

Combine with grey sewing threads from the sewing thread range for a classic denim setup.
