Aurifil Mako 50wt Cotton Thread Cone - 2905 Army Green

Earthy, muted, and wonderfully versatile, Aurifil Mako 50wt Cotton Thread in Army Green #2905 is a rich, grounded green that's perfect for piecing, quilting, applique, and everyday sewing.

Aurifil 50wt is a popular 2-ply cotton thread known for its strength and fine profile. It creates beautifully flat, crisp seams with less bulk, making it an excellent choice for precision piecing while still providing the durability needed for machine and longarm quilting.

This generous 6,452-yard (5,900 metre) cone is especially useful for frequent sewists, larger quilting projects, longarm quilting, and anyone who seems to go through thread faster than they go through fabric. 😉
