Aurifil Thread 12wt Cotton Variegated Large Spools

Aurifil 12wt variegated cotton thread combines the bold, chunky stitch of the 12wt weight with the visual interest of a variegated colour palette. Suitable for use in the needle on most domestic machines, as well as for hand stitching and bobbin work, it creates dramatic, multi-tonal texture across quilts and textile art projects. For bobbin work, place the fabric right side down and stitch from the back, allowing the 12wt thread wound in the bobbin to create a raised, textured design on the right side of the fabric.

Recommended needle: 100/16 or 90/14 Topstitch.

Aurifil thread is 100% long-staple Egyptian cotton, grown in the MAKO region of Egypt on the river Nile. Long-staple fibres produce a stronger, smoother thread with minimal lint. While not organic, Aurifil is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified - free from harmful chemicals and completely safe for human use, so you and your loved ones can wrap yourselves in those lovingly stitched quilts without worry. Aurifil is also BCI and FSC certified, and partners with Plastic Bank to offset ocean-bound plastic.
