Description

Aurifil’s 50wt/2ply thread is their most versatile and most popular cotton thread. It is available in all 270 of our Cotton colors, and is wound on our iconic orange spool. The 50wt is strong and thin, and results in remarkably flat and crisp seams. While it is wonderful for piecing, subtle quilting and topstitching, and English Paper Piecing it also works incredibly well for needle turn applique, bobbin and machine lace, machine applique (straight stitch, zigzag, blind hem and blanket stitch,) machine embroidery, dense machine quilting, subtle machine and longarm quilting, basting, whole cloth and micro quilting, and dense background designs.

Aurifil is 100% Egyptian Cotton, grown in the MAKO region of Egypt on the river Nile. When considering the quality of cotton we can make the comparison to that of wine, different geographic areas offer different attributes to the raw material. Aurifil thread is long staple, which refers to the length of the fibers in the raw cotton Boll, the length of the fibers determine the quality of the cotton.
