Aurifils 100% cotton 40wt 2-ply thread is produced in all 270 colours and 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 appliqu, machine embroidery, and edge-to-edge pantograph and custom longarm quilting.
