Aurifil’s 100% Cotton 40wt/2ply thread is wound on a green spool.

It is also terrific for Single, Double or Triple Strand Cross Stitch, Hand Piecing, Bobbin and Machine Lace, Machine Applique, Machine Embroidery, Edge-to-Edge, Pantographs, and Custom Longarm Quilting.

Sofia F. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this set for a few weeks on doll clothes and the 40wt thickness gives such a crisp topstitch that the seams really pop. The black and white pair covers almost everything I sew, and the thread glides through my machine without a single snag.

Lucy P. ★★★★★

The 40wt weight really makes a difference for stitching doll clothes—the topstitching is crisp and clean. I love that these spools are full size, not those tiny ones you run through in no time.

Matthew ★★★★★

I needed a nice crisp black for some bag handles and this 40wt cotton gives just enough definition without being too heavy. The three spools will last me through several projects, which is a nice bonus.
