Sewing thread Brother Alterfil 08359 Moss Green 1000 m

Brother Alterfil 08359 Moss Green 1000 m is a general-purpose sewing thread designed for use in domestic and light industrial sewing machines. The 1000 m spool delivers an extended, continuous supply for garment construction, mending and decorative topstitching, helping to reduce spool changes during sewing sessions. The Moss Green tone is intended to match or contrast with green fabrics depending on project needs, and the thread is formulated to provide consistent stitch formation on a variety of woven and knit materials.

Advantages

The Brother Alterfil thread offers uniform thickness and smooth feeding to minimise breakages and skipped stitches. A long 1000 m length reduces the frequency of spool replacements, which is useful for longer sewing runs and multiple small projects. The fibre finish is optimized for machine compatibility, allowing reliable tension control and consistent stitch quality across different stitch types and speeds.
