Crafted from Long Staple Egyptian Mako cotton, Aurifil threads are trusted by both professional and home quilters for their exceptional quality and performance. The 50 weight Mako cotton is Aurifil’s most popular and versatile thread. It’s a go-to choice for: Hand piecing and appliqué, especially with the needle-turn method Machine appliqué, where you want the fabric to shine—this thread subtly blends into the background using straight, small zigzag, or blanket stitches Detailed machine quilting, ideal for designs with heavy backtracking like feathers or dense background fills Texture-rich quilting, when you want dimension without visible stitch lines For best results, pair with an 80/12 Sharp/Microtex, denim, or topstitching needle.
