- Use for fine hand sewing, appliqué, cross stitch, and machine or hand sewing
- Cross stitchers use it on finer count linens — it gives crisp definition so you can see every stitch, without railroading the thread into the linen, giving it a light, delicate appearance
- It is recommended to use for text stitching in counted thread work as it gives the lettering more crisp definition
- If you are sewing something fine, this is your thread
- A favorite for fine hand embroidery and counted thread work
- Sharon Schamber recommends this thread for piecing, hand appliqué, and long-arm quilting machines
- Does not add bulk to seams — silk thread compresses when ironed, unlike cotton — a critical issue when working with fine points in piecing and machine appliqué
- For hand appliqué, Sharon prefers this thread as it is easy to use and disappears into the fabric
- Each spool contain 100 meters
- 213 colors available
