Questions & Answers

Can you tell me if this thread is 40 wt ?

There is a 50 gram Some people do not like it for hand piecing as it tends to break easily. It works nicely for piecing on a machine or quilting on a home machine. The only thread I tend to use is this one.

This spool has about what number of yards of thread on it? It doesn't say in the description if the cone has 6452 yards, as it is in the picture. ?

There are 6452 yards in every Aurifil cone for 50 wt cotton, so this one is as well.

Selected User Reviews For Aurifil 2250 - Red- Mako 50 Wt 100% Cotton Thread, 6,452 Yard Cone. (.Update)

This Aurifil thread is the best for quilt piecing and machine top stitching because it has the perfect shade of off white
5/5

My aim was to find a true white without the brightness and beige shade of a very light beige. This is the perfect shade of off white, since the color is a true white without the harsh brightness, which would enable it to blend well with most lighter colored fabrics. When I paid this price for this thread, I expected the best color choice, and it doesn't disappoint.
Aurifil 50 wt is smooth and non-abrasive. After years of using different brands of much cheaper 40 wt poly, I finally gave in and got this smooth fabric. Among the reasons cotton is so popular are its lint-free thread and strength. This method is also great for bobbins, as it gets much more wound up on one bobbin as compared to another. In the 40th place. This polymer weighs wt. It will make a big difference in the overall quality of your finished quilt. As far as my other big cones of Omni 40 wt poly (made by Superior at around the same size of around 6,000 meters for around. The best thing to do would be to get at least two bobbin holding cases, one of them being labeled 40 weight. There are two weights of poly 50 wt. and poly. Hopefully, this will answer all of your questions about the thread choice for quilters as well as those who create bags or clothing. If you want to use 40 wt, you can do so. For all sewing, poly is a good choice (if you are on a budget), but for Aurifil 50 wt, it truly is worth the extra money. A quilter's hands are very important. It's also more convenient to buy large AuriFil cones at 6000 meters or more instead of 5000 meters or less.

The claim of false advertising is false
3/5

The claim of false advertising is false. On a spool of ribbon is a yard cone sticker 6452. They only have 1400 yards of material on each spool. It's a scam. I've been taken advantage of. This is the There is an 00 spool and an Aurefil cone next to it. This vendor deserved one star because its size is like that of a household furniture store.

Update Thank you to Amazon for issuing a refund for.

This 50 pound variety of cone is variegated I highly recommend this purchase
5/5

This is the only thread I buy from Aurofil, and I can't imagine buying another. As this is the first cone I've ever bought, I was a bit nervous. There are four of them. There are 53 times as many threads as it's little sister I thought it was 4, but it wasn't. This is 53 times the price, so if you sew a lot (as we do to make the masks), I suggest getting a cone to save Though it looks weird to the untrained eye, this variation is ideal for making You might want to think about it. I wish you all the best with your.

That turned out to be better than I expected
5/5

As I had not used this brand of thread previously, I didn't know what to expect, but, in the end, I loved it. As well as using it in the needle, I also used it in the bobbin. Despite the variety of colors in my quilt, which I just finished, the colors blended well. Initially, it was very easy to work with, and it didn't break as I worked on it. I used this for my first quilt project on my new longarm machine, so I expected issues. I was pleasantly surprised that there weren't any. I will keep this thread on hand for sure.

Despite its strength, this thread is thin
5/5

As for the Aurifil 2600 Dove Grey thread, I was very glad to use it, because it is so strong, and it doesn't break on me. It is also very subtle in color. like how thin the thread is and how it doesn't unravel nearly as much as some other thread I have tried, so I can easily thread it through my machine.

A versatile solution
5/5

I was advised by the lady at my local quilt shop that this color of thread would coordinate with a wide variety of fabrics. Despite the fact that it does not show through anything I have sewn so far, it does a good job hiding in white and colors. The product was definitely worth the money. I've been using it for a while now, and I haven't used any yet!.

It's great to see this I have never come across a thread that I like better
5/5

The piecing I do with it is all done with it. It's sturdy and does not break, and I find a lot of thread on this at the end. You can sew it well, and it blends well, as well as it's smooth. Spool with a lot of rope. You get a good value for your money with this purchase.

The thread from Aurifil is of the highest quality, at a great value
5/5

I am an Aurifil fanatic. As well as my machine, it favors it. My order was fulfilled exactly as I ordered and it arrived in good time - thank you! I paid less for my quilt at my local quilt shop than what I paid at yours.
