0.5oz pot of “SMASH!” Sew Fine Thread Gloss. A rainbow smash up of delicious treats, such as sugared strawberry, sweet peach, ripe raspberry and cotton candy. Fruity, fun and your new favourite thread gloss scent!
Tame your threads! No more tangled, knotted or static-y threads! Easy to use. Simply thread your needle, and lay the thread over the tin. Apply pressure with your thumb and pull the thread across the top of the wax. Repeat if needed.
As a kid, did you ever come across your granny’s sewing kit and wonder why there was a gnarly chunk of beeswax in there? Well, your gran was/is a smart woman. For generations, sewists and tailors everywhere have been using beeswax as a natural thread conditioner to give them smooth and tangle-free quilting and hand-stitching. It also helps to provide additional strength to natural threads such as cotton and silk, as well as to help prevent thread fraying.
Sew Fine Thread Gloss is made with locally sourced beeswax that has NOT been chemically processed. It is handmade in a variety of scents (as well as a natural beeswax/honey scent) in small batches just outside Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is a natural light amber colour (as it should be) – those white beeswaxes have been bleached or have had clay added to make it white. The beeswax Sew Fine sources is one step away from the hive – filtered once to separate it from the honey and any leftover hive particles. Each pot contains 0.5oz of thread gloss.

Circes (verified owner) –
I do a lot of hand applique and bought the Thread Gloss after it as recommended in a recent zoom talk with Jen Kingwell and Ginny Robinson. I’ve used Thread Magic in the past to condition and strengthen Aurifil 80wt but this product from Carolyn Friedlander just takes it to the next level. It’s great to work with and the smell is just amazing, fruity beyond belief! I’d recommend it to anyone wanting to avoid knots in their threads when appliquing but also looking for something a little bit special to treat themselves with.
