About This Product
Calling all sewers and quilters! If you haven't tried Mettler Silk-Finish Cotton Thread yet, you're missing out. This Espresso colored thread is just beautiful - it's got this lovely silk-like sheen that makes your projects look really professional. The thread is mercerized, which basically means it's treated to be stronger, more colorfast, and have that gorgeous shine we all love. With 547 yards (that's 500 meters for my metric friends) on each spool, you get plenty of thread to work with on larger projects without constantly running out. This stuff is perfect for pretty much any sewing need - quilting, garment making, long arm quilting, you name it. The manufacturer recommends using needle sizes 80-90 with this thread, which is pretty standard for cotton threads. What's great about Mettler threads is their consistency - they don't break easily, they feed smoothly through your machine, and the colors are rich and vibrant. The Espresso shade is this deep, warm brown that works well for both practical sewing and decorative stitching. Whether you're working on heirloom quilts that you want to last for generations, or just doing some everyday mending and crafting, this thread holds up really well. I've used it for everything from piecing quilt blocks to topstitching on denim, and it performs beautifully every time. The thread is strong but still has enough give (they call it optimal elongation) that it doesn't snap under tension. If you're someone who takes their sewing seriously and wants quality materials that make a difference in your finished projects, Mettler threads are definitely worth the investment. They might cost a bit more than some budget brands, but the quality difference is noticeable. Your sewing machine will thank you, and your projects will look so much better with this smooth, consistent thread running through them.
