I am redoing some seats.
I kind of want the bold look with the thread , wanted to know what size besides 92 thread , you upholsters might use.
all answers are welcome :grin:

I used to use 92 but on a lot of things that I have been doing for custom autos, 138 is my go to thread. It really makes some of the stitches "pop" and seems to get the attention that some customers want.

Depend on how contrasts the color is.
Here is 2 T90 topstitch and a T210 top stitch.
Green and coffee are T90
Orange is T210
