Description
Pink sits in the light warm range and never reads cold beside it — not even next to pure white. At 200 m the spool covers several accents. Weight 40, colour code 302. A metallic needle with a larger eye spares the wrapping.
Set as an outline around a matt design, it changes the effect of the whole embroidery. A thread for accents: across large areas the shine quickly reads as too much, in the right place as exactly right. The spool belongs upright and dust-free in your box.
What Madeira Metallic Sparkling Embroidery Thread 200 m Pink is suitable for
- outlines around matt embroidery designs
- festive and Christmas decorations
- accents on dark clothing
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 do I set the tension?
Noticeably looser than for ordinary embroidery. Metallic thread barely stretches and reacts sensitively to pull. Set too tight, it breaks instead of settling into the stitch.
Can I wash the piece?
Yes, at a gentle temperature. The shine survives as long as it is not washed hot or put through a dryer. For occasion wear hand washing is the safe option.
Can I sew with it on a sewing machine?
For decorative seams yes, slowly and with loosened tension. For load-bearing seams it is unsuitable: the core holds, but the wrapping abrades along the seam over time.
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.
