Question

I'm sewing up a garment made of 100% polyester.Do I need to use polyester thread?

Answer 1

Yes.

Enjoy your garment!

Answer 2

No, but poly thread will match the care characteristics and strength of the fabric.  Cotton thread usually has a lower burst strength than poly of the same diameter, and will rot under conditions that poly will take in stride.

Suggested brands of poly thread in the US: Gutermann, Mettler Metrosene, American Efird's poly

Answer 3

Looks like poly-ester thread mite best suit the poly ester garment .

(why not ask some seamtresses or tailors in your suburb?)

cheers!
