Your cart is empty.Uses: 1. Machine piecing: Gives a great result with a nice flat seam every time. 2. Hand piecing : A great weight for hand piecing. 3. Hand applique' : Ideal for all types of hand applique' . From needle turning to using prepared shapes, the 50wt is thin and you can match your shape perfectly. 4. Machine applique' : Ideal when a very fine finish is desired. This weight disappears so your fabric is the feature. Use for a straight stitch, small zig zag, Blind hemming stitch, and Blanket stitch. 5. Machine embroidery: Love it! Great results every time. Use Mako 50wt in the bobbin as well, or your regular bobbin thread – in which case tighten the top tension a little. Use a Microtex 80/12 needle. 6. Machine quilting: Use for very detailed machine quilting with a lot of back tracking 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 the same thread in the bobbin. Use a Sharp/Microtex, quilting or even denim needles 80/12. 7. Longarm quilting: Perfect for creating texture where you don’t want the thread to be a feature. Backgrounds, stitch in the ditch, basting quilts, wholecloth quilting, micro quilting for dense background designs. Match bobbin thread.

I am a quilter and I use this thread all the time. I love it. It goes easily through my sewing machine and through the fabric. I would even use it to do the Quilting. It blends well and it looks good.

Aurifil thread is used by quilters all over the country. It comes in a variety of colors and is strong enough for hand sewing.

I now like to piece my quilt tops with Aurifil. It gives you beautiful seams that iron nice and flat. It is also less linty than other cotton threads., so my sewing machine will perform better. While the price seems high compared to the Coats and Clark and other threads at Joanns, these spools hold 1422 yards of thread, making them a much better value! I am an Aurifil convert!

Lasts sooo much longer than a regular spool of 40 wt thread. I’ve used this for so many projects already and still haven’t quite used up the first spool yet. Great value for how much thread you’re getting!
