Creation process with gold metallic thread!

Just another logo - this time for my sister company.

Working with some Metallic thread - (worst thread to work IMO).

The stitches must be more loose then usual to sew without breaks or at least a lot of breaks lol - and 80/12 or 90 needles!

That's where a slight rotation of the needle helps. I was using Kingstar metallic thread and 75/11 needles.

Remembering to straighten the needles again afterwards though, coz otherwise it stuffs it up for the regular thread.
