Works like a charm, would also work on sleeping bags etc. just repaired a down jacket and a nano puff shirt. Awesome
Where are you guys getting these wire threaders??? This method has only resulted in breaking two different threaders of mine, the fabric is too thick to get the wire through.
If your needle threader is too weak, An alternative would be to insert a sewing needle through the fabric from front to back, leaving just the eye of the needle exposed. Thread the needle with the loop, as if you were threading the needle with a regular piece of thread, and pull the it through. This will be difficult to thread, because that loop is very short, but it is the only way I can think of if the “needle threader” is not strong enough to push through.
Addendum to last comment…. In the beginning, Insert the needle PARTIALLY through the fabric front to back before you thread it with the loop. That is the only way you will be able to get that short little loop thru the eye of the needle. It must be very close to the site that the needle it is entering the fabric for it to reach that eye! The smaller your fingers, the easier this will be !
