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 have several sewing machines, but my BabyLock is very finicky and only sews well using Aurifil thread because of the low volume lint content of it. I prefer the 50 weight, and it is a much cleaner, finer thread than even other 50 weights I've tried. Purchasing the 3 pack on Amazon is the best price I've found anywhere in the quilting industry.

I do a lot of sewing ( almost every day) and Aurifil is my go to thread. It is extremely fine and smooth and gives off very little lint , which saves me time from cleaning my machine. It is a great thread for piecing quilt blocks. I highly recommend using it if you do any sewing, and it comes in lots of colors.

Great thread, low lint, and strong. My berninas love this thread and it’s worth the little extra if you’re making something with love. ❤️

This is the best cotton thread on the market. When making bowl holders cotton thread is needed, polyester will melt in the microwave. It’s strong, it doesn’t fray and it sews like a dream.

Use for piecing quilts. Love the larger spool. Shipping was slow but I think that was because of current covid situation, would order from again.
