Perle Cotton Dusty Mix Thread Pack – Size 12 is the perfect way to show your team spirit. These shirts come in many different colors so your team spirit can be seen all the time.
This Perle Cotton Dusty Mix Thread Pack – Size 12 has a bold and updated look, with a unique design. It’s made of 100% polyester with a breathable, stretchy fabric. The brand logo design is on the front and the team name is on the back.
The colors in this pack are grayed, or ‘dusty’, and will work with grayer color palettes and fabrics.
Included are: #1984 dusty rose, #3305 pale sky blue, #4228 dusty teal, #5229 dusty celery, #7944 mauve, #8017 light dusty purple, #8026 dusty purple, #8327 taupe. (FYI: the dusty purples are taupy-purples.)
I use this thread for big-stitch hand quilting, to make visible applique stitches on cotton fabric, and in wool applique.
Don’t forget to order needles. My favorite needle with this thead is the #9 Bohin Crewel. Use either the Colonial or Roxane wire needle threader with these needles and this thread.
Presencia Perle Cotton is 100% extra-long staple Egyptian cotton, mercerized for strength, colorfast, bleachfast* and shrinkfast. One 10-gram ball of size 12 perle cotton has approximately 136 yards of thread.
