Use Invisible Thread for Top Machine Thread

If you sew a lot and do mending or alterations, use invisible thread for the top thread and change bobbins for different colors. You will save a lot of time by not having to re-thread the needle every time you do a different colored garment. (I wish I had found this tip when I was trying to make the mending pile disappear LOL)

Invisible thread is good if you're not going to iron the garment with high heat. It may melt otherwise.
