Description
Neon orange is the strongest signal tone of the range. On black and navy it looks almost lit from within. For sportswear, workwear, rescue motifs and a cut-vinyl look.
Matt threads show every pull of the yarn more clearly than glossy ones. Stitch a little slower and loosen the upper tension a touch, then the filled area lies calm. As bobbin thread, a fine bobbin yarn belongs in the case, not Frosted Matt itself.
The range holds forty colours, from bright white to black, plus seven neon shades. Anyone building a palette gets far with the muted tones and adds the signal colours only where they are genuinely needed.
What Madeira Frosted Matt No. 40 Neon Orange 7946 - 500 m is suitable for
- Machine embroidery on clothing and home textiles
- Fine lettering and small designs
- Quilting lines with a matt surface
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.
