You can use any of the thread we stock for all of the fabric substrates we sell!
Our favourite threads for bag making are Glide, Affiniity & Premo-soft. These will work well for both seam stitching and topstitching, and can be used on any domestic machine. The Glide and Affinitiy threads offer a beautiful sheen for topstitching and are stronger than all-purpose thread.
The Strongbond Nylon Tex 70 thread is suited for industrial machine sewing, but can be used in some heavy duty domestic machines.

You can find our sewing machine needles HERE.

For faux leather and cork we recommend a Microtex (Sharps) needle in a size 90/14.
For cotton, canvas & tweed layers that are interfaced with fusible interfacing, we recommend a Jeans/Denim needle.
Change your needle frequently to avoided thread splits and skipped stitches!
If you are using a thread heavier than all-purpose thread, or heavy fabric, you may need to upgrade your needle size.
