Mettler Silk-Finish Cotton colour 0020: a versatile sewing thread

This quality thread is made from 100% mercerised Egyptian cotton, giving it a natural sheen and reduced shrinkage. With a thread thickness of 50, it is slightly heavier and ideal when you want your stitches to stand out. The rich, versatile colour 0020 blends easily with many fabrics, whether you are working with plain or printed designs. It is a great option for precise quilt work, decorative seams and other dressmaking and haberdashery projects. For best results, we recommend using a needle size of 80–90.

Soft sheen, strong results

The subtle lustre of Mettler Silk-Finish Cotton gives your work a refined look without losing the practical benefits you need from everyday sewing thread. Use it alongside light shades for contrast, or pair it with similar tones for a calm, elegant finish. Whether you are adding decorative topstitching, piecing a quilt or finishing careful appliqué, this cotton thread helps your project look polished.

Our tip

Always test on a scrap of your fabric before you begin. That way, you can check the stitch tension and the colour effect against your chosen cotton fabric, linen fabric or other sewing fabric. It is a simple step that helps you achieve the best possible finish.
