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.

The Aurifil is a wonderful to use! No breaking thread and less lint. That makes it easier for maintenance of my Juki machine!!

I used the Aurifil to sew my quilt tops together. I love it. I don’t get so much lint from it. I think it’s the thread!

Great quality at a good price

I primarily use this thread for piecing, and it works wonderfully. The quality is excellent, making my sewing projects much easier. It was a good price as well. The Dove color is soft and complements a variety of fabrics, which is an added bonus for my projects.

I love Aurifil thread and don’t want to use any other thread. Dove goes well with dark fabrics and light fabrics including white.

Having never used Aurifil before , I ordered my first spool to try piecing on my Featherweight 221. I was surprised at how well it works on this machine. The lint that normally comes off on other threads was minimal. It winds smoothly on the bobbins. The thickness of the thread seems to glide through the tension discs and create a very nice stitch with my FW. I just ordered a second time for this Dove color. It also blends well , so it saves time by not changing colors and rethreading while...

My go-to thread for piecing

Love the sturdiness and quality of this thread and the Dove colorway feels like it goes with any combination of colors. I find myself using this for almost all of my quilt piecing (and even sometimes quilting).

Love this thread as soon as I tried it.

Tried based on a recommendation and love it !

A presenter at a quilt show I went to recently recommended Aurifil thread. I decided to try it. I don't normally like thin thread but this thread is amazing!
