Mettler シルクフィニッシュコットン 50番手 164ヤード マウスグレー

I've been using this thread for my long arm quilting, and the 50 wt cotton holds up beautifully without any fraying. The mousy gray is a perfect neutral that blends with most fabrics. Even after pressing seams, the color stays true with no bleeding.

This gray is seriously perfect for piecing—the 50 wt weight glides through my machine with a size 80 needle and the mercerized finish gives it just enough sheen to make seams pop. Heat resistance means my iron doesn't wreck it either, which I've learned the hard way with cheaper threads.

The 50 wt Egyptian cotton is incredibly smooth through my machine, and the mousy gray color worked perfectly with my scrappy quilt project. I used a size 80 needle as suggested and had zero breakage or fraying.
