Our Hand Quilting Thread, a beloved choice among quilters for over two decades, has earned its reputation as the best in the market. Made from extra-long staple cotton fibers and finished with a smooth glaze (coating), this 40 wt. thread is designed specifically for hand quilting applications and techniques. The glazed finish ensures the thread effortlessly glides through fabric layers without tangling or knotting, making your quilting process more enjoyable. Available in the most popular hand quilting hues, this thread simplifies needle threading, even with small-eyed needles, allowing for a frustration-free experience. 

Strength and durability are at the core of our Hand Quilting Thread’s performance. Quilters appreciate its surprising strength and pliability, making it easy to rework stitches without fraying or breaking the thread. Reviewers consistently highlight its reliability, noting that it does not tangle or shred like other brands. Whether you are a seasoned hand quilter or just starting, this thread offers the control and precision you need, and it holds up well even under the pressure of repeated needle pulls and rethreading. 

Each 500-yard spool provides ample thread for your quilting projects, offering exceptional value and performance. Quilters often rave about how smooth the thread feels as it glides through the fabric, making intricate quilting designs and stitch patterns easily achievable. Whether stitching heirloom-quality quilts or smaller lap projects, our Hand Quilting Thread ensures that each stitch is as smooth and robust as the last, allowing you to focus on your artistry while the thread delivers exceptional results.
