We have our School Ball coming up next week and I've been asked to fix the hem on a neighbour's daughters dress. I found out today that the dress is a dark silver.
I'm wondering, instead of trying to source an exact match of thread, would it be suitable to use Invisible thread instead? I'm assuming I will have to hand blind stitch the hem but seeing I haven't actually seen the dress, that's only an assumption.
I'm not familiar with this thread at all so does it work in the same manner as normal sewing thread? If I have to sew on the machine can I fill the bobbin with it?
Either way it means a flying trip to Spotlight for thread.
Thanks in advance, any input would be much appreciated.
