YLI Threads Silk Thread – 100 wt Fine Japanese Silk for Appliqué, EPP, and Quilting - White

Silk #100 is an ultra-fine 100 wt. thread made from 100% Japanese filament silk—trusted by quilters for its strength, softness, and precision. This thread glides smoothly through fabric and blends beautifully into your work, making it ideal for hand or machine appliqué, detailed quilting, and English Paper Piecing. Thanks to silk’s natural flexibility, stitches stay tight and secure without distorting curves or delicate seams. Quilters love how effortlessly it handles intricate stitching, especially on layered fabrics for appliqué or a quilt sandwich. Available in over 50 stunning colors and wound on 200-yard spools, Silk #100 offers a subtle sheen and lasting durability. For best results, use a Topstitch #70/10 needle for home machines or a #14 (3.0) for longarm quilting. Pair with Precision polyester thread in the bobbin for smooth, balanced stitches.
