A long time ago, I was told to use single thread when hemming pants because the double thread can rub against each other and break easier. Don't know if thats true or not. But if it is, binding with a single cotton quilting thread is all that is necessary.

I use single thread. I had to snip one apart not long ago to repair something. snipped one thread thinking I could pull it apart to have enought room to make repair..... not on your life, I had to rip out inches, It was in there strong as could be.
