Aurifil Thread

Aurifil Cotton Mako’ thread is made using the best long staple Egyptian cotton making it strong, smooth and relatively fuzz free.

The long fibres, and the mercerising treatment used during manufacturing, produces a thread with a high sheen and superior strength which is available in 252 solid colours, including 36 variegated colours.

Aurifil Cotton Mako’ is recommended for any purpose where a reliable, high quality 100% cotton thread is desired.
It is ideal for all forms of patchwork, machine quilting & embroidery, hand quilting & embroidery and bobbin lace work.

The generous size of the standard spools makes it possible to finish a design with a minimum number of spool changes.

The standard spools are conveniently packaged with a thread retainer base.

Gently twist the base to release thread for sewing & then tighten the base when ready to lock thread tails for storage.

A neat way to tidy up those flapping and tangling loose ends!
