Aurifil 50 wt Cotton Mako 200 m - Dove

Aurifil 50wt Cotton Mako in Dove is a beautifully smooth, fine cotton thread and one of the most versatile choices for everyday sewing, quilting and piecing.

Made in Italy from 100% long-staple Egyptian cotton, Aurifil 50wt is prized for its strength, low lint and excellent stitch quality. The fine 50wt thread creates neat, flat seams with minimal bulk, making it particularly well suited to precision patchwork and quilt piecing where accuracy matters.

Dove is a soft, versatile grey that blends beautifully across a wide range of fabrics. It is an excellent neutral when white feels too bright and darker grey is too noticeable, making it particularly useful for multicoloured quilts, low-volume fabrics, modern neutrals and general sewing.

Despite its fine appearance, Aurifil 50wt is strong enough for both machine and hand sewing. It is also an excellent choice for quilting when you want the texture of the quilting to show without the thread dominating the fabric.
