Description
New Primitive Colors!
Sue Spargo’s Eleganza Perle cotton collection is designed to meet the specific needs of hand stitchers, embroiderers and embellishers. Passionate about stitching, Sue set out to design a product of utmost quality in collaboration with Wonderfil Specialty Threads. Eleganza is made from 100% Giza 88, the highest calibre extra long staple Egyptian cotton. Fibres spun with this fibre create a thread of extreme softness, strength and lustre. An extra 15% twist has been incorporated into the design of Eleganza resulting in a thread of superior stability, uniformity and sewability. Eleganza is double gassed and mercerized to eliminate build up of lint and snub, enriching the appeal of stitchery. Sue has designed a bright, saturated colour palette along with a unique line of variegates. Eleganza’s collection of variegates contain extra short variegations in order to provide rapid colour change on small scale designs.
Great for thread embellishment, big stitch hand quilting and Sashiko!
The impeccable quality of Eleganza Perle Cotton results in smooth, lustrous surface allowing the thread to glide smoothly through all types of fibers. Eleganza’s tight twist creates beautiful, firm and textural stitches, and its reflective surface gives a luxurious luster to embellishment stitchery.
It is offered in a vast array of colors ranging from saturated solids and, subtle tone on tone or contrasting variegates.
