Manufacturer: Aurifil Spool of thread in 100% Egyptian cotton, 1300 m long. Thickness: 50 wt. Weight: 30 grams Aurifil is an Italian brand, headquartered in Milan, renowned for the quality of its threads used by all patchwork designers worldwide. Aurifil collaborates with these designers to create many of its yarn collections. Mako cotton comes from a region of Egypt renowned for its high quality cotton. Subsequently, the yarns are all manufactured in a factory in Milan, taking advantage of Italian know-how. They go through processes to make them strong and low-linting. Thus, they can easily be used in the machine, because they do not leave lint and therefore allow you to wash/repair your machine less (the only thread that does not go into the machine is embroidery thread). Aurifil produces a very wide range of colors (270 colors for almost all products), wide choice of thicknesses according to needs (the thickest: 12 and 28 thread, the most versatile: 40 and 50 thread, finer: thread 80).

"Drift" is the newest collection of 50wt. cotton quilting thread by Angela Walters for Aurifil. It coordinates beautifully with Angela's "Drift" fabric line with Art Gallery Fabrics. Filled with gorgeous sea-breezy blues and crisp corals, this colorful set of 12 large spools has a retail value of $130 — and thanks to our generous friends at Aurifil, you have a chance to win one for yourself! Angela is a prolific quilter, a popular teacher, and she has authored several books and many modern quilt pattern designs. She didn't start quilting until after marrying her husband, whose family was filled with quilters. She took lessons from his grandfather, and in the process, she learned how much she enjoyed free motion quilting, especially on modern quilts; it's like doodling with thread. "I'll tell anyone who will listen, that the quilting is the most fun part of making a quilt. I often joke, if quilting is my therapy, then threads are my meds," says Angela. CraftFoxes.com has lots of free quilt patterns and tutorials to feed your own therapy. In addition to working well for piecing and quilting, cotton thread is perfect for sewing natural, lightweight fabrics or delicate lace. Headquartered in Italy, Aurifil makes beautiful threads and features color collections from many different designers. Visit their website to learn more about working with cotton thread in different types of sewing and quilting projects. Be sure to check out the Gen-Q blog for more about Angela and her work. Generation Q Magazine is all about contemporary and modern quilters and their creative lives. Angela Walters Angela's color inspiration for "Drift" came from her vacation to a tropical island in the Caribbean. One of the many ways you can enter to win this thread collection is to leave a comment here, telling us what you found most inspiring on your last vacation!

To produce first-rate quilts and embroidery projects, use a superior quality thread like Aurifil's Mako Cotton Thread. This 50-weight thread produces virtually no lint, making it ideal for English paper piecing, machine applique (straight stitch, zig-zag, blind hem, and blanket stitch), basting, bobbin/machine lace, dense background designs, and so much more. All of Aurifil's thread is 100% Egyptian cotton that is grown in the Mako region of Egypt and manufactured in Milan, Italy. To make their 2-ply Mako Cotton Thread even more luxurious, it is mercerized to add strength and to give the strands a vibrant sheen. With all these fantastic features, it's no wonder why Aurifil thread is famous for its versatility, strength, and radiant color. Each cone in the Mako Cotton Thread collection holds 6452-yards (5900 meters). To get the best results, Aurifil recommends that you use a size 80/12 microtex/sharp, universal, quilting, or denim needle for everyday use or a 4.0 needle when quilting with a longarm.

AURIFIL - TULA PINK - NEON'S & NEUTRALS THREAD COLLECTION introduces a whole new range of Tula hues – rainbow neutrals These collection IS available as limited edition set. The collection showcases 12 large 50WT spools: 7002 (Neon Pink), 2410, 2564, 2566, 7000 (Neon Orange), 2310, 2420, 6728, 7001 (Neon Yellow), 2908, 5014, 2610 “When I began designing this collection, I was searching for something new to say about color that would still live in my world. The only realm of color that I have never touched on is the world of neutrals, those subtle colors that create the perfect backdrop to the vibrant color that I am already so fond of. Soft, earthy colors alone wouldn’t stand up to my everyday colors so I decided to pair their whisper with the loudest scream of color I could create on cloth – neons.” Tula Pink
