Celeste said... Here's something to try for topstitching I used on a pair of cargo pants for my husband: put two strands of regular thread together and use them thru the needle. You could work off two bobbins you put on your needle post or one spool of thread and one bobbin if two spools are too big to fit on your machine. This worked great for me and I used a topstitching needle.
You did a meticulous job to be proud of. If I were you I'd just leave off those back pockets next time. I think this would give a fantastic smooth booty look on the back and save you alot of grief! Wonderful work. 10/16/07 8:21 AM
