3, double to 6 strands, if that makes sense. I use a product called silamide it is waxed thread made for hand tailoring. if using regular thread use 6 doubled to 12.
Thank you so much! Many other videos I watched showed them creating or buttoning the bustle, but not how to manipulate it to make it look nice! I’m excited to try to do my daughter’s bustle up now that I have a better idea of what the heck I am doing! I kept thinking, “wouldn’t it be better to do the middle bustle last instead of first??” But, they all did the middle one first. Thank you, again!
