Shop Sewing Thread & Floss Online for All Projects from Ubuy Rwanda

Whether you're hand-stitching your grandmother’s heirloom quilt or finishing the final touches on a machine-embroidered kurti, Ubuy Rwanda is your ultimate destination for sewing thread and floss. From cotton and polyester threads to shimmering metallic floss for decorative crafts, Ubuy offers an expansive collection for artisans of every skill level. No matter whether your project is cross-stitching, quilting, embroidery or garment repair, you'll find the right colour, texture, and strength here.

With top global brands like DMC, Simthread, and many more, we ensure high-quality threads suitable for both hand sewing and machine use. You can also explore related essentials like sewing tools, embroidery threads & floss, machines & accessories, all under the arts, crafts & sewing section.

Explore Different Types of Sewing Thread & Floss

Craft your creations with quality threads from Ubuy Rwanda, your one-stop destination for sewing thread and floss. Whether you’re embellishing, quilting, or simply mending, find all the colours, textures, and brands you need right here.

Cotton

Cotton thread is a staple for hand stitching and lightweight fabrics. It's soft, easy to handle, and ideal for quilting and embroidery work. Brands like DMC and ThreadNanny offer rich-coloured cotton threads that pair beautifully with sewing project kits or hand sewing needles, making it a must-have for precise needlework.

Corespun Polyester

Known for its blend of strength and flexibility, corespun polyester thread works excellently on both woven and knit fabrics. It handles high-speed sewing and reduces fraying. Crafters working with sewing embroidery machines will love its reliability, especially from trusted brands like Simthread. But as one Reddit user from r/SewingForBeginners explains, your choice of thread often depends on your project’s longevity:

"Many quilters prefer cotton because it ages with their quilts – polyester doesn’t, and can saw through aged and delicate cottons. We are talking heirloom quilt stuff tho, so that means 30+ year old cottons. I prefer polyester since I am not dying any projects (yet), and am more concerned about things surviving the next ten years, not the next fifty. It also doesn’t lint my machine up as much. I would get silk thread if I were working with silk, though."

Source: r/SewingForBeginners (Reddit)

So, whether you're aiming for heirloom quality or simply durability for everyday use, the right thread material makes all the difference.

Filament Polyester

This smooth, continuous filament thread is perfect for machine embroidery. Its sleek texture gives a professional finish to decorative stitching. Combined with tools from the sewing machine accessories, it helps deliver stunning machine embroidery results for DIY and commercial use.

Monofilament Polyester

Often used for invisible seams or quilting layers, monofilament polyester thread blends into the fabric. It’s strong, transparent, and ideal for lightweight materials. This thread supports users working with quilting thread and sewing threads for fashion detailing.

Spun Polyester

Resembling cotton but stronger, spun polyester is versatile for both hand and machine sewing. It is suitable for everyday stitching, repairs, or finishing hems. Hobbyists will find it useful when exploring new stitches with items such as sewing embroidery machines, or tools.

Metallic

Metallic threads add shimmer and elegance to festive embroidery, home décor, or fashion detailing. Though delicate, when used with the right machine embroidery thread tools, they produce intricate and eye-catching designs. Try metallic floss from Newbrothread for high-gloss effects.

Nylon

Nylon thread is known for its stretch and resilience, often used in activewear and lingerie. It's flexible and durable, making it great for heavy-duty stitching. Combine it with sewing threads or serger thread when working with stretchy or elastic fabrics. However, when working with invisible or nylon thread, there's a helpful tip to keep in mind, as shared by a Reddit user on r/sewing:

"My mom taught me that when you wind invisible/nylon thread you need to have a base of cotton or polyester on the bobbin first to prevent it from getting too tight."

Source: r/sewing (Reddit)

This simple step can help prevent tension issues and ensure smoother stitching, especially when dealing with fine or slippery threads.

Silk

Silk thread glides effortlessly, offering a natural sheen and softness ideal for high-end embroidery. It’s commonly used in couture designs and heirloom sewing. Embroidery artists looking for delicate finishes often pair silk threads with cross-stitch floss and hand-stitching thread.

Rayon

Rayon threads shine like silk but are more affordable and colour-rich. Often used in machine embroidery and decorative stitching, rayon threads from brands like Simthread deliver vibrant results across all arts, crafts & sewing projects.

Glitter or Mylar

Glitter or Mylar threads are attention-grabbing and reflective, perfect for party wear or festive décor projects. Use them in combination with metallic embroidery thread tools for dazzling outputs in embroidery and serging work.

Wool

Wool threads add texture and depth, perfect for crewel work, thick embroidery, or felt stitching. Pair wool with hand sewing needles and embroidery floss for creating statement patterns on canvas or woollen garments.

Why They Say That

r/CrossStitch / 3lementary4enguin

"If you use DMC the most then it really is so easy to enjoy stitching when you don't have to stop and wait for a color. Having a full collection makes things smooth, and the quality is always reliable."

Highlights the convenience and consistent quality of DMC when building a collection.

r/Machine_Embroidery / EdgeAndGone482

"I'd recommend Simthread for those just starting out. It's not brilliant quality but you get a set of 60 colors for under $100, and it has the right weight/specs."

Simthread is affordable and suitable for beginners, but not top-tier in quality.

r/Machine_Embroidery / Various

"I do see that a lot of people prefer the Simthread brand over Newbrothread. Apparently, Simthread is the supplier for many brand name embroidery thread companies... I like Newbrothread for its variety packs, performs well enough on my Brother SE630."

Simthread is considered slightly better, but Newbrothread is valued for variety and good price.

r/Machine_Embroidery / Various

"The top thread brand is ThreadNanny and it is 100% polyester and 40 weight ... worked well in my Brother PE800, no issues."

ThreadNanny works well in embroidery machines, especially when the correct weight is used.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewing Thread and Floss in Rwanda

  • What type of thread is best for hand sewing?

    Cotton or polyester threads work best for hand sewing. You can buy these options online at Ubuy Rwanda under the sewing threads section.

    Embroidery floss is usually made of six strands and is used for decorative stitches. Sewing thread is thinner and used for structural seams.

  • Which thread works best for quilting projects?

    Quilting threads like spun polyester or cotton thread are ideal. Explore quilting thread options from brands like ThreadNanny.

  • Can cotton and polyester threads be used together?

    Yes, they can be used together, but match the thread type to the fabric for better durability. Ubuy Rwanda has separate sections for cotton sewing thread and polyester thread to help you choose.

  • How many strands should be used in embroidery floss?

    It depends on the project, but typically 2–3 strands are used for standard embroidery. You can find cross stitch floss and more under embroidery threads & floss on Ubuy Rwanda.
