It  was interesting to see Marin's recommendation re the thread he
uses i.e..
Tenara, a brand made by  GoreTex.

In England my cover maker uses nothing but thread made by Hemingway and
Bartlett Co. Greenwich. Conn. This is called Dabond and is 100%
polyester.

I have not until now heard of Tanara.

Marin, can you please tell me what the composition of Tanara is?
