Discover the exquisite beauty and unparalleled performance of YLI Silk #100 Thread, a collection we are delighted to offer our discerning crafters. Crafted from 100% pure filament silk, this luxurious thread boasts a fine 100-weight (Tex 12) and is presented on convenient 200m spools. Its incredibly fine nature makes YLI Silk #100 Thread the perfect choice for intricate hand appliqué, delicate heirloom stitching, and subtle background quilting. The thread lies beautifully flat within the fabric, ensuring your stitches are discreet and enhance the natural texture of your work, rather than dominating it. We believe in the power of quality materials to elevate your creations, and this silk thread is a testament to that philosophy.

Our extensive range of YLI Silk #100 Thread includes a spectrum of beautiful colours, from classic White and Natural White to warm Neutrals like Natural and Creme, and vibrant hues such as Pale Yellow, Daffodil Yellow, Goldenrod, Bright Yellow, Bright Orange, and Gold. You'll also find sophisticated shades like Dull Gold, Light Cinnamon, Bubble Gum Pink, Bright Red, and Salmon, ensuring you have the perfect shade for every project. Whether you're aiming for subtle elegance or a pop of colour, this collection provides the versatility to bring your artistic vision to life. Each spool is ready to add a touch of silk's natural sheen and strength to your sewing.

For those who enjoy hand sewing, we recommend pairing your YLI Silk #100 Thread with a Sharps 11 needle or an Appliqué needle in size 10 or 12 for optimal results. If you prefer machine stitching, a Microtex 70/10 needle will provide the precision needed to work with this fine thread. Using the right tools is crucial for achieving professional finishes, and we're here to guide you every step of the way. As a family-owned business with nearly 40 years of experience, we pride ourselves on offering expert advice and high-quality products that support your passion for quilting and sewing.
