Soie Surfine’s crisp definition shows off every stitch on fine linen, making it especially lovely for lettering and text in counted thread work.

  • 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
  • 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
