Gütermann C Ne 50 Cotton Sewing Thread - 100 m - No. 248

This Gütermann sewing thread in colour no. 248 plays the card of anise green with a hint of yellow, a fresh tone that evokes young shoots. It goes well with ecrus, off-whites and deeper greens.

Technical characteristics

The coil contains100 mofMercerized cotton. Mercerization is a treatment that refines the appearance of the yarn, gives it a little shine and promotes the fixation of the color. With its titrationNe 50, expressed as an English number, this thread remains thin: the higher the number, the smaller the cross-section. The thread is sold individually.

How to use it

• In patchwork, assemble green or yellow floral cottons with this color to keep the seams harmonious.
• To mark a dart or a middle of a piece, make a skewering of large dots: this light green is easily spotted on a dark fabric.
• On raw denim, contrasting topstitching in this tone gives an original detail to the pockets.
• Avoid using it on a pure white: the yellow of the thread will appear too pronounced.

Combine it with an ecru cotton ribbon or beige bias, and a plain sage green or natural linen fabric.
