I'm working on my first sequin project and at least up close the white Nymo seems really noticable. Do you find it is rally obvious or is it ok from a distance? i was wondering if you used different colors to match to your sequins at all?
Thank you for having such clear instructions, it's cool to see a project go this easily.

Thanks
Sarah

I've only used white nymo...most of my topper beads are crystal/transparent colors, so it's not really that visible...even when I do black opaque topper beads on black sequins, I use white nymo. LOL! Yeah, you can see it up close, but once those sequins sparkle under the sun or lights, you're never gonna see the thread!

ps: we'd love to see pics when you're done!!!

Your sequin work is wonderful !!! All my niece's fancy shawl sets are sequined (made by me). I used invisible thread but, Walela is right- there is so much shine from the sequins that any thread isn't going to be noticeable.
