Great idea. And as long as the machine will stitch (might need a large eyed needle), go for it.

I tried this and one of the threads broke. I think if I had a larger needle it would be fine. Really like the effect!

Bernina had a double eye needle about 40 yrs ago,so you could sew 2 threads at once.I don't know it they are still available.It came with the Bernina 320 machine.

You can get them in SA - very useful when you do free motion needlepainting.

I've tried two threads, but with regular thread and metallic. I never thought to do two regular threads! The results look great! I'll have to try it!

These threads look so nice together for the hair here. I'd tried using double threads before but, hadn't yet on embroidery. Have a double eyed needle but, need to try it too. Thanks for sharing this tip with photos. :~D
