Aurifil Thread 50wt Cotton Variegated Large Spools

Aurifil 50wt variegated cotton thread adds colour movement and visual interest to quilting and stitching projects without changing thread mid-project. The long-staple Egyptian cotton delivers the same minimal lint and smooth running as the solid Aurifil range, with the added dimension of colour gradients that shift gradually across your work. Ideal for free-motion quilting, hand quilting, and decorative stitching, where a single thread can create a multi-tonal effect.

Recommended needle: 80/12 Microtex/Sharp, Universal or Denim.

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.
