Next Stitch - Thread Balm - Gingerbread
Limited edition for Christmas 2024
Gingerbread Thread Balm smells good enough to eat. The scent is warm and creamy with notes of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and a touch of clove.
Gingerbread evokes memories of childhood Christmas prepartions with my Mum, and being allowed to roll out the dough and weild a cookie cutter.
Our thread balm is 100% natural and handmade in Australia using only locally sourced beeswax.
A light coat of our thread conditioner reduces knots and tangles when hand sewing. It lubricates the thread and reduces friction and fraying, particularly when hand quilting through all those layers.
Beeswax can be very hard and even brittle in chilly climates and with age. Our thread balm base has been specially formulated so that it will stay soft for easy application, but not so soft that it is goopy and glugs up your thread.
The thread balm comes in a slider-topped, flat tin so that it is easy to lay your thread on top and use. Just hold your thread between the tin and your finger and pull. Then run your thread through your fingers and you are ready to stitch
Please note: It may smell good enough to eat - but we don't want you to do that. It may also contain traces of tree nuts.
