Why do I need Thread Gloss?

Have you ever had to cut your thread short in the middle of your groove because there was a gnarly knot? Using thread gloss helps prevent tangles and knots, taking away all of the frustration of handwork.

What crafts do I want to use Thread Gloss for?

Anything that you're dealing with cotton thread--hand embroidery, hand quilting, cross-stitch, English paper piecing, applique, repairing clothes, whatever. Simply drag your thread across the gloss pot after threading your needle, applying slight pressure on the thread with your thumb, while pulling with your other hand.
