Are you machine sewing?

• Machine Quilting. Excellent for detailed machine quilting involving lots of back tracking (like feathers). Creates beautiful texture when you don't want to see the lines. A great fit for Sharp/Microtex, quilting and denim needles 80/12.
• Machine Piecing. You will have a nice flat seam every time!
• Longarm Quilting. Excellent for showing texture where you don't want the thread to be the main focus.
• Machine Embroidery. Use 50wt in the bobbin (or you can use your regular bobbin thread, just tighten the top tension a bit). Use a Microtex 80/12 needle.
• Machine Appliqué. Great for showing off your fabric, as the weight disappears. Straight stitch, zig zag, bind hemming stitch and blanket stitch.

Are you hand sewing?

•  Aurifil 50wt is a perfect fit for Hand Appliqué, Hand Piecing and Lace.
