Hand Quilting Cotton Thread - Cranberry

Gà1⁄4termann Hand Quilting Cotton Thread in Cranberry is a premium 100% cotton thread developed specifically for hand quilting and hand sewing.
It features a smooth, lightly glazed finish that helps prevent curling, knotting, and tangling while stitching, making it easier to achieve neat, even quilting stitches.
The rich cranberry red shade adds warmth and definition to quilting designs, working beautifully with florals, reproductions, and festive or autumn colour palettes.
Strong and abrasion resistant, this thread glides smoothly through fabric and batting layers without fraying.
Designed for hand use only and not recommended for machine sewing.
Thread Weight Explained
This thread is 40wt / No.
65, meaning it is slightly thicker than standard sewing thread.
A 40wt thread is ideal for hand quilting because:
• It creates clearly visible stitches
• It is strong enough for quilting layers
• It is easier to control by hand than finer threads
• It adds gentle definition without looking bulky
Lower weight number = thicker thread.
40wt is a popular choice for traditional and decorative hand quilting.
