Aurifil Mako 50wt Cotton Thread – Light Grey 1300m

Clean, soft and incredibly versatile, Aurifil Mako Cotton Thread 50wt – Light Grey is one of those colours that quietly works across almost everything. This gentle neutral sits beautifully with modern fabrics, low-volume prints, cool colour palettes, florals and traditional quilt designs, making it a reliable everyday thread you'll reach for again and again.

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 consistent stitch quality. Fine enough for precise piecing yet strong enough for quilting and everyday sewing, it has become a favourite among quilters and sewists worldwide.
