Mettler Silk-Finish cotton 40 quilting thread

Mettler Silk finish Cotton 40 quilting thread is a 100% cotton, long staple double mercerised Egyptian cotton thread. Silk Finish quilting thread is strong and break resistant, and gives off very little fluff in the sewing machine. It is also colour safe and shrink resistant, as well as fade resistant and safe to iron. Mettler quilting thread is a slightly heavier weight thread, ideal for decorative quilting and stitching effects, and can be used for hand or machine quilting.

Mettler have recently re-branded all their thread products, so many of the  colour shades have new numeric references. Where this applies, the old reference number is noted in the description - the only difference between the old and new threads is the name!
