GÜTERMANN Metallic embroidery thread is designed for ornamental stitches and decorative seams where a glittering effect is wanted. Colour 1005 is supplied on a 200 m (about 220 yd) spool for machine embroidery, decorative topstitching, and craft projects that benefit from metallic shine. Use a metallic needle around NM 80–90 and run a short sample to confirm stitch quality on your chosen material.
