Silk #100 – 233 Amethyst Spool is an ultra-fine filament silk thread made from 100% Japanese silk fibers. With a 100 wt. construction, it blends seamlessly into fabric, enhancing your quilt without overpowering it and ensuring your stitches look flawlessly smooth. The Amethyst color adds a rich, jewel-toned accent—perfect for elegant appliqué, detailed quilting motifs, and invisible stitching.

Each spool includes 200 yards of thread. Silk #100 is a favorite for English paper piecing due to its natural flexibility, helping create tight, secure stitches that bend and fold with the fabric without distortion. For machine quilting, use Topstitch #70/10 needles for home machines or #14 (3.0) for longarms. Pair with Precision in the bobbin. Some items may ship directly from the manufacturer.
