Description
White reads calm and restrained. If you would rather not emphasise a seam, this tone carries you furthest on light fabrics. The spool carries 200 m of metallic embroidery thread at weight 40, and the colour code reads 300. Top tension belongs noticeably loosened.
If you work with it for the first time, plan a test piece: it behaves differently from polyester. Its shine is metallic rather than silky — which separates Sparkling clearly from the glossy polyester threads. A test piece beforehand saves trouble in the middle of a design. Note the colour code with your project straight away.
What Madeira Metallic Sparkling Embroidery Thread 200 m White is suitable for
- accents on dark clothing
- decorative stitches on a sewing machine
- stars, snowflakes and ornaments
Sewing tips
- Eine Metallicnadel mit größerem Öhr verwenden — sie schont die Umwicklung.
- Deutlich langsamer sticken als mit Polyestergarn, sonst reißt der Faden.
- Oberfadenspannung spürbar lockern.
- Die Spule waagerecht abrollen lassen, nicht senkrecht von oben abziehen.
- Nicht bügeln über der Stickerei — Metallfolie verträgt keine direkte Hitze.

Frequently asked questions
How fast may I stitch?
Considerably slower than with polyester. Friction in the needle eye warms the thread, and metal foil takes that worse than a smooth core. About half your usual speed is a good starting point.
Can I stitch whole areas with it?
Technically yes, visually rarely sensible. The shine works hardest as an accent. Across large areas it reads restless, and longer stitching time raises the risk of thread breaks.
What is the colour code for?
Metallic tones differ in nuances that are hard to describe. The code on the spool is therefore the only reliable detail when you want to restock the same shine.
Is the spool sold singly?
Yes, every spool is sold on its own. Since metallic thread is usually needed for single accents only, one spool often lasts across many projects without running out.
