Description
A dark, saturated violet with a blue share. Distinctly deeper than lilac, and it carries large areas. For grapes, night skies and strong floral motifs.
Frosted Matt is spun a little finer than other threads at weight 40. Small lettering and narrow outlines stay clean instead of running together. Madeira recommends a machine embroidery needle in size 75 or 80 — any finer and the thread starts to chafe in the eye.
Set beside glossy polyester, Frosted Matt gives a design a calm area from which outlines lift. Many people use exactly that difference rather than having to choose between the two kinds of thread.
What Madeira Frosted Matt No. 40 Purple 7922 - 500 m is suitable for
- Machine embroidery on wovens and jersey
- Filled areas without shine
- Appliqué work and outlines
Sewing tips
- Maschinensticknadel der Stärke 75 oder 80 nehmen (Madeira empfiehlt Art. 9450).
- Die Oberfadenspannung etwas lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
- Als Unterfaden ein dünnes Untergarn nehmen, nicht das Frosted Matt selbst.
- Matte Garne zeigen jeden Fadenzug — lieber langsamer sticken als zu schnell.
- Das Motiv nicht direkt bügeln; die matte Oberfläche wird sonst stellenweise glänzend.
- Die Farbnummer zum Projekt notieren, sie ist die Identität des Tons.

Frequently asked questions
Is Frosted Matt suitable for quilting?
Yes. The matt surface lets the quilting line step back, so the pattern works through structure rather than shine. For visible quilting lines on quiet fabrics that is often the better choice.
Can I use the thread in a sewing machine?
For decorative work yes, as regular sewing thread no. It is built as machine embroidery thread; for load-bearing seams it lacks the tensile strength of an all-purpose sewing thread.
Why does the colour look different on screen?
Screens render colour differently, and matt surfaces throw back less light than glossy ones. If you need it exact, work from the printed Madeira shade card rather than from a monitor.
Can I press the finished design?
From the back, at medium temperature. Pressed directly, the matt surface gets flattened and starts to shine — precisely what you want to avoid with this thread.
