This fantastic fusible web by Charlotte Warr Andersen has 115 yards per spool. Great for binding and appliqué.

Bobbin use directions - Wind bobbin as usual. use a fine thread such as MonoPoly or The Bottom Line in the needle.

Needle use directions - Use a topstitch 100/16 needle. Loosen upper tension until stitch is even. Avoid last thread guide before needle.

Fusing directions - Use hottest iron temperature setting suitable for fabric being fused. Apply iron for 10 seconds. Allow fabric to cool before handling.

Traditional machine spools cannot hold as much thread as cones or plastic king spools so the trend of the future is larger thread spool sizes.   Much of the cost of a spool of thread is in the winding process so the larger the spool, the greater the savings. If you use a cone shaped spool, it won't fit on the standard spool pin holders on most machines.  The thread stand is preferred because it stabilizes the thread and elevates it higher than the machine. The vertical arm of the thread stand lifts the thread higher than the machine which then facilitates an even feed without added tension.

Thread stands can accommodate any type of thread which is wound on a cone. The thread on these spools is cross-wound, and is meant to pull off over the top as the spool sits flat on the thread stand.  Heavy weight base for stability.
