Au Ver À Soie® Soie Surfine, is a fine “Z” twist spun silk that is 130/2 with a beautiful luster. Made in France by the Au Ver a Soie company, whose quality has remained steadfast since 1820.
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
