I only like metallic thread for tambour because the nature of the stitch means the thread is getting very little strain so it behaves a lot better. Mostly 😅
I spent several hours yesterday doing metallic thread satin stitch with a too big needle (so it could actually handle the thread) for gacha game pajamas. Why did I think this was a good idea 😂
I think the best way to experiment with those things is on silly projects at least, better than dream ones! I’m sitting down today to figure out metallic threads… I’ve got a metallic specific needle and some other stuff so if I have luck I’ll tell you 😭

Counterpoint: masochists exist who will pair it with metallic foil coated spandex.
metallic thread is made of Satan’s ass hairs and it makes me want to commit murders
