Aurifil Color Builders 40wt Sea Turtle – 3-large spool thread set
- Low stock - 1 item left
Aurifil Color Builders 2021 – Sea Turtle is a three-large-spool thread set with colors inspired by an endangered animal species. The set includes a light, a medium, and a dark shade that pair perfectly together.
Aurifil's Color Builders 2021 series was created to showcase Aurifil's soft yet strong 40wt thread. The series consists of 12 small collections, each drawing its colors from an endangered animal species – as a reminder that these species need our attention and protection.
40wt is slightly thicker than 50wt thread, so it shows up beautifully in quilting and decorative stitching, yet still runs smoothly in the machine. Each spool contains 1000 meters of thread.
Applications:
- Machine quilting and longarm quilting (edge-to-edge, pantographs, free-motion quilting)
- Hand quilting and visible decorative stitching
- Machine appliqué and machine embroidery
- Cross stitch (using one, two, or three strands)
