From Aurifil: "Aurifil 50wt Your best piecing and applique thread"
“Hand applique' : Ideal for all types of hand applique' . From needle turning to using prepared shapes, the 50wt is thin and with all the colors available you can match your shape perfectly.”
“Hand piecing : A great weight for hand piecing.”
“Lace : Wonder for both Bobbin lace & Machine lace.”
“Longarm quilting : Perfect for creating texture where you don't want the thread to be a feature. Backgrounds, stitch in the ditch, basting quilts, wholecloth quilting, micro quilting for dense background designs. Match bobbin thread.”
“Machine applique' : Ideal when a very fine finish is desired. This weight disappears so your fabric is the feature. Use for a straight stitch, small zig zag , Blind hemming stitch , and Blanket stitch.”
“Machine embroidery : Love it! Great results every time. Use Mako 50wt in the bobbin as well, or your regular bobbin thread - in which case tighten the top tension a little. Use a Microtex 80/12 needle.”
“Machine piecing : Gives a great result with a nice flat seam every time.”
“Machine quilting : Use for very detailed machine quilting with a lot of back tracking such as feathers and heavy background quilting . Perfect for quilting that creates texture when you don't necessarily want to see the quilting lines. Use the same thread in the bobbin. Use a Sharp/Microtex, quilting or even denim needles 80/12.”
From Rushbrooke Strand:
"You will love this thread for hand piecing and applique. Because it is lightweight but strong it makes a thinner seam. Thinner seams - less bulk in your quilt. And there are squillions of colours so you can match the thread to your fabric." - R. Rushbrooke.
