Trying to sew some luxurious fake fox fur on my mother's good sewing machine. It sews everything with ease...except this stuff. Testing on thick towelling fabric was fine, but not testing the real fabric. So far, I've tried a normal needle, a stretch fabric needle and every thread tension with long stitch length. The problem is, the thread always loops on the underside. Haven't adjusted the bobbin tension, as it looks OK on the top. All internet searches "how to sew faux fur" etc don't mention this problem, only talk about cutting the fabric and cleaning the seams.
(Oh, I'm not actually making a costume, I'm trying to make a toy. But I have seen video of a respected bellydancer wearing a skirt that looked like it had black cat tails attached all over. You never know when someone might actually want to end up on TPBDC thread :lol: )
