Eight spools of 220 yd/200 m Soft Metallic, a beautiful highlighting thread which looks just stunning. The secret to its appearance lies in the black viscose center covered by a soft and fine metallic polyester foil. Give your designs a really special finish by using Metallic "Soft" on your sewing and embroidery machine. It is suitable for all makes of sewing machines.

With a revolutionary process that bonds a shimmery foil wrap to a thread core, Madeira has created metallic thread that is the sturdiest you can buy. This precision German engineering makes Madeira metallics durable enough for home dec, from holiday table runners to accented throw pillows, yet soft enough to add sparkle to your most elegant evening wear.

A typical embroidery design contains 6,000 stitches. This means each 220 yard/200 m Smart Spool with its 40,000 stitches per spool will produce 40 designs on average. That's plenty of thread for most home embroiderers. In fact, with the Smart Spool size, you can afford to buy thread more often and experiment with new colors and textures. Madeira's more traditional spool shape eliminates the "drop off" and tangling problems associated with the elongated spools many other manufacturers use. And, all Madeira spools come with double locking end caps to keep thread neat and tidy.
