50wt: piecing and machine quilting with minimal bulk in the seam.

Aurifil Cotton Mako is spun from Egyptian long-staple cotton and is known for very low lint and a smooth, slightly glossy finish. The weight numbering runs the opposite way to intuition — 50wt is the fine piecing thread, 40wt the all-rounder, 28wt and 12wt the heavy decorative weights.

269 colors of the Aurifil Cotton Mako line (28wt) are available on this page. Each spool is 28wt, 110 yd per spool.

Where it belongs: 50wt: piecing and machine quilting with minimal bulk in the seam. 40wt: quilting and construction. 28wt: hand quilting and visible machine quilting. 12wt: hand stitching, big-stitch quilting, bold topstitching.
Needle: 80/12 for 50wt; 90/14 for 40wt; 100/16 for 28wt; Topstitch 100/16 for 12wt.

Aurifil spool colors identify weight at a glance: orange 50wt, green 40wt, gray 28wt, red 12wt.
