Majestic Set - Summer
This set includes four 500-yard spools of our premium 40 wt. Giza-class Egyptian-grown cotton quilting thread in colors: #413 Tahitian Sunset, #419 Jungle, #428 Aloha, and #435 Pinata, plus a pack of our #90/14 Titanium-coated Topstitch Needles. Quilters love how little lint and fuzz there is with Majestic, thanks to its mercerized and gassed finish, which creates smooth, strong stitches. The titanium needles last 6-8 times longer than standard needles and reduce skipped stitches and thread breaks thanks to their deep groove and elongated eye.

Frequently Asked Questions
Majestic Thread - Frequently Asked Questions
Majestic is our40 wt. thread made from Giza-class 100% Egyptian-grown extra-long staple cotton, which means it's bold enough to show beautifully in your quilting designs while staying smooth and low-lint. Forty-weight threads are heavy (thick) enough to create visible, textured stitches that add dimension to your quilts without overpowering the fabric. Extra-long staple cotton fibers produce a strong, smooth thread that resists breakage even under the demands of high-speed longarm quilting or free-motion work on home machines. Majestic is available in 45 variegated colorways and five solid colors, giving you creative freedom to match or contrast your fabric choices. Quilters love Majestic for edge-to-edge designs, feathers, swirls, and decorative fills where they want their stitching to be part of the quilt's visual story.
Majestic works beautifully on both home sewing machines and longarm machines. For home machine use, we recommend a Topstitch #90/14 needle. We encourage you to make tension adjustments as needed to dial in balanced, even stitches. Home machine quilters love Majestic for free-motion quilting, decorative borders, adding bold texture to quilt tops, and its 500-yard spool size that fits all home sewing machines. Longarm quilters appreciate Majestic's consistent performance at high speeds on large 2,000-yard cones, which means fewer thread changes per quilt.
Majestic is available in 45 variegated colorways and five solid colors, each designed for different creative effects. The variegated versions feature two distinct options: blended color transitions and contrasting color transitions. The color change intervals are precisely dyed at 1" lengths and result in organic, artistic stitched designs. Solid colors provide consistent, uniform stitching when you want your quilting design to show without color variation drawing attention.
Many quilters keep both variegated and solid Majestic on hand: variegated for creative, eye-catching quilting where the thread becomes part of the design, and solids for traditional quilting where consistency is key. Both versions are the same premium 40 wt. Giza class 100% Egyptian-grown extra-long staple cotton, so performance and quality are identical across colors.
Precision 60 wt. polyester is the ideal bobbin thread for Majestic. The fine weight stays hidden on the quilt back, letting your colorful Majestic variegated thread shine on top. Precision is lint-free, which helps offset any minimal lint from the cotton top thread and keeps your machine cleaner. If you want cotton throughout your quilt, use Dream Seam 50 wt. or Soft Touch in the bobbin. For longarm machines, M-style Precision prewound bobbins provide consistent tension and hold more thread than self-wound bobbins, reducing interruptions during customer quilts.
Majestic features precisely dyed 1-inch color transitions that create organic, artistic movement in your quilting designs. The color changes are short enough that you'll see the full range of colors even in small quilting motifs like feathers and swirls. Majestic comes in 45 variegated colorways, ranging from subtle blended transitions (where colors flow gently into each other) to bold contrasting combinations (where each color stands out distinctly). The effect is a hand-painted look that adds dimension and visual interest to edge-to-edge quilting, custom designs, and show quilts where you want your quilting to be part of the artwork.
