Needle Turned Appliqué:

Have you tried Cotton Mako' for needle turned appliqué? 

Needle turned applique with Ne 50/2 Cotton Mako

The Ne 50/2 Cotton Mako' is the perfect thread to use for your next appliqué project. It is a fine thread that helps the stitches settle into the fabric and become invisible. The mercerising treatment, applied to all the threads in the Cotton Mako' range, gives it a smooth, strong finish which allows the thread to travel easily through the eye of the needle without tangling or knotting.

When planning your next project look for the Ne 50/2 Cotton Mako', on the orange spool, and create a needle turn appliqué masterpiece with the ease of an expert.

Blanket Stitch Appliqué using Lana Wool Blend

Lana is a 2 ply wool blend thread (50% Australian wool & 50% Acrylic) suitable for  both hand & machine embroidery. 

It is recommended that a 90 or 100 needle be used when machine stitching with Lana. 

I also found that I had equal success when using Cotton Mako' Ne 40/2 or 50/2 as the bobbin thread when stitching these appliqué samples. So I suggest that you choose the bobbin thread for the best colour match.
