Take a bite out of this Variegated Red Apples 200m Gutermann Metallic Thread. A little shimmer goes a long way! Spruce up any project with a superior stitch made of Gutermann Metallic Thread to give off a twinkling appearance and a shimmering effect. This thread can be used for ornamental stitches, decorative seams, and as a metal-effect for all embroidery motifs. Made from 100% polyester, the recommended needle to use when working with Gutermann Metallic Thread would be between a size 80 or 90 metallic machine embroidery needle—but hand sewing is also an option for a hands-on embroidery experience.
