Needle Recommendations
75/11 Needle

The supplied recommendation for heavier materials. Confirm compatibility with your machine and test the stitch quality before starting the final project.
Why Choose a Matte Cotton Thread?
Unlike glossy embroidery threads, a matte cotton thread offers a more natural-looking finish. This can be especially useful when the aim is to emphasise stitch texture, create understated decorative details or complement fabrics with a traditional or tactile appearance.
COTTY 30 is one option to consider when the design calls for cotton's characteristic appearance rather than a highly reflective finish. The final result will depend on the fabric, embroidery design, stabiliser and machine settings.
Creative Thread Combination
For a contrasting decorative effect, consider combining cotton embroidery with metallic thread in selected areas of a design. The difference between a matte cotton finish and a metallic sheen can create visual contrast.
