Quilting Product Description

Established in 1983, Aurifil is an accomplished Italian company based near Milano, with a full-grown experience in producing superior quality cotton threads for professional and domestic quilters. Aurifil threads are made from Long Staple Egyptian Mako cotton.
The 50 weight Mako cotton thread is the most popular and versatile thread. It is ideal for hand piecing and hand appliqué especially when using the needle turn method. It also perfect for machine appliqué when you want the fabric to be the feature rather than the thread - the thread looks like it "melts" into the fabric, use straight, small zig zag, and blanket stitches. Use for very detailed machine quilting with a lot of backtracking such as feathers and heavy background quilting . Perfect for quilting that creates texture when you don’t necessarily want to see the quilting lines. Use an 80/12 Sharp/Microtex, denim or top stitching needle for best results.

    You Get A LOT OF THREAD!

    Even tho I had read soo many good reviews of this thread, it took me a while to buy my first large spool because of the price. But I was surprised how far this thread goes. You get the equivalent of about 6.5 small spools (220 yds) that each sells for $5.95, for a total of about $38. It's a 2-ply thread, the stitches were balanced, seem to melt into the fabric, and seams lie flat. So if you have favorite colors to piece with, this is a great size to buy. When Missouri Star has a 3 pack on a Daily Deal sale, the value is even better and always sells out EARLY. (Note: I have not used for quilting.)
