Aurifil Mako Cotton Thread 50wt - Chalk

Clean, soft and effortlessly versatile, Aurifil Mako Cotton Thread 50wt – Chalk is a sewing room essential that blends beautifully across countless projects. Sitting between a bright white and a warm cream, Chalk offers a softer, more natural neutral that works beautifully with florals, low-volume prints, vintage-inspired fabrics and everyday quilting projects.

Made from premium 100% long-staple Egyptian Mako cotton, Aurifil's much-loved 50wt thread delivers exceptionally smooth, low-lint performance with beautifully flat seams and reliable stitch quality. Fine enough for precise piecing yet strong enough for quilting and everyday sewing, it has become a favourite choice among quilters worldwide.
