18oz indigo weft/indigo warp - IH-666SII and IH-634SII

What is the difference fade wise and colour wise between indigo warp and weft, and the standard ingido dyed jeans? (Obviously will depend on the amount of times dipped etc, but generally?)

Ahh crap, just read up!
Don't worry

You're really an altruistic fella

Very smart!

What a tease…

Blue gets my vote, though I do like that gold hem.
-
I'm all for blue thread. I like how the gold hem looks in that pic as well but its hard to say without seeing the setup as a whole. Just gold on the hem with blue everywhere else might look a bit weird. Pulling a page from Roy's book with some black thread on blue fabric could be interesting.

g,
is it possible to dye some thread indigo to match? just dunk the whole spool?
could be cool and lead to whitening – presuming the thread will absorb the dye.

I'm looking at some thread samples stitched onto pockets today. The threads on the sample we made were too bright and looked a bit True Religiony, we are trying to mute it down, if that does not work we will revert to blue thread
I like the idea of a toned-down browny-orange thread. It seems that just about all indigo/indigo jeans have blue threads, so it would be nice to make these a bit different.
Having said that, stealth arcs all the way!
This unsolicited opinion comes free of charge.

I also think blue thread would look the best. Looks great on my SEXIHXLSXA13's and PBJ xx-007's. I'd be curious to see what black stitching would look like once the jeans had faded, could be interesting… but I still say blue.
