COATS & CLARK 230A-2 Dual Duty All-Purpose Thread, 400 Yards/1 Spool of Yarn, Black

I’ve been using this COATS Dual Duty thread for years, and it’s consistently reliable for everything from basic repairs to full sewing projects. It’s strong, easy to work with, and a staple in my sewing kit. 🧵 Strong and Versatile for Any Project This 400-yard spool offers plenty of thread for both hand and machine sewing (page 1). Whether I’m hemming jeans, fixing upholstery, or sewing a costume, this thread holds up without snapping or fraying. The polyester-wrapped core adds strength and minimizes tangles during use. 🎨 Classic Black That Matches Everything The black color is deep and true—perfect for pairing with dark fabrics without any mismatch. It blends well and doesn’t fade after washing. Also available in white (as shown under color options on page 1), so I always keep both on hand. 🪡 Machine-Friendly with No Snags I’ve run this thread through multiple sewing machines, and it feeds smoothly without lint build-up or breakage. As confirmed in reviews (page 3), even high-speed stitching works great—no skipped stitches or unraveling at the seams. 💰 Affordable and Long-Lasting At just around $5 a spool and 400 yards per roll, it’s a solid value. I’ve found it lasts longer than some higher-end brands I’ve tried, and it doesn’t compromise on quality. ✅ Pros: Durable, tangle-resistant thread Smooth in both hand and machine stitching Great colorfastness, doesn’t bleed Excellent value for daily use ❌ Cons: None—just wish there were more color options in-store Overall: This is my go-to thread for a reason. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned sewer, it offers reliability, smooth handling, and lasting results. Always keep a spool (or three) of this on hand!

will say thick thread and looks like a lot there.... had to purchase there is no longer a sewing store here or nearby...
