Selected User Reviews For Aurifil 50wt Mako Cotton Thread 1,422 yards - Red A1050-2250

This was my favorite book of all time
5/5

Due to its 100% cotton material. I had never before used this brand of 100% cotton thread on my embroidery machine. I fell in love with it instantly. Having 100% cotton made of this material allows me to embroider designs on hot pads, microfiber cloths, and more In a microwave, heat potato pouches, and so forth. The label at the bottom of the spool, which can be attached to the thread holder, has a circular perforated area where I loved to sit the spool. I've found that making holes or cuts in other brands, including other brands of piercing and cutting tools, is very sticky simply because pieces of paper stick to my scissors and metal I choose. In this specific case, the perforated label made it so easy to insert the spool onto the holder. All you have to do is push the center paper into the holder, and presto! Your spool is ready to be used. In addition to being easy to remove the clear wrapper, the initial unwinding of thread is also a plus. I have attached pictures of the spool bottom before I pressed the center in and turned it over!.

The very thinnest thing I have ever seen
3/5

In all the reviews, it is always the opposite This thread is very weak Everyone was saying it would not break, but in reality it is very thin if you are looking for extra thin thread, then this is the one you want. The app gets a 0 because I wouldn't recommend it for anything else.

Any other thread would be a waste of time
5/5

In addition to quilting, I enjoy reading and watching movies. The only thread I use to piece my quilts and for quilting is Aurifil thread. The thread is used for both the bobbin thread and the top stitch. I do not alternate threads. There are times when I have been disappointed using thread that is not Aurifil. In order to make sure your machine is properly cared for, you should use Aurifil thread.

Red is the color of truth

The thread is thin
3/5

Although this thread is 50 wt, it is only 2 ply, and as other reviewers have pointed out, it is.

The color is nice
5/5

As far as I'm concerned, Aurifil is always a great brand. I have a lot of it in different colors and it is always good quality, never breaks, and doesn't cause my machine to gather a lot of lint.
