DMC 202B FIL A COUDRE & A QUILTER COTON 1 BOB 200M

A warm and subtle tone, between beige and light brown, which evokes the natural fibers of linen. This discreet color soothes pieces made of thick fabrics and elegantly covers quilting and embroidery work on unbleached cotton. Combine it with shades of greige, pale ocher or cream for a harmonious and timeless ensemble.

This DMC sewing and quilting thread is 100% mercerized cotton , which gives it a soft and silky finish while remaining very resistant to use and washing. Each spool measures 200 m, a generous length which allows you to chain several projects together without changing thread. Its fineness combined with its strength allows it to slide perfectly through the fabric, without making knots or getting tangled, even on the thicknesses specific to patchwork. Made in France , it is designed for use both by machine and by hand, which makes it a versatile ally for all stages of a textile project.

Our tips for use

• Choose this thread for assembling and stitching your quilts and patchworks, including on thick fabrics.
• Use the same spool for machine sewing and for hand quilting, without changing thread during work.
• Choose the bistre Linen color to match your dominant fabrics or, on the contrary, create a contrasting topstitching effect.
• Test the tension of your machine on a scrap of fabric before starting a large project, as the fineness of the thread may require slight adjustment.
• Store the spool away from direct light to preserve the vibrancy of the color over time.

This thread pairs naturally with fine patchwork needles, glass-head pins and cotton coupons intended for quilting. It finds its place in the kit of a beginner seamstress as well as in the workshop of an experienced quilter, alongside a thimble and a pair of precision scissors.
