    • Gütermann Metallic Effect

    Metallic thread with a background of sparkly starsAdd a precise, light-catching finish to your makes with Gütermann Metallic Effect Thread. Purpose-designed for decorative stitching and machine embroidery, it lays a clean, reliable line that reads refined rather than flashy—ideal for accent quilting, crisp monograms, tidy buttonholes, and polished top-stitching on bags, pouches, and home décor.

    Each spool is engineered from a durable 70% polyamide / 30% polyester blend for consistent stitch formation in both hand and machine sewing. The thread performs comfortably on quilting cottons, linen blends, denim, wool and knitwear wherever a decorative highlight is needed. Colours include Black, Silver, Gold, Red, Blue, Light Blue, Teal Blue, Turquoise, Purple, Green and Pink—versatile shades that complement modern palettes, festive makes, and classic quilts alike.

    For best results on a domestic machine, fit a Universal needle size 100–110, reduce speed slightly to let the metallic filament glide, and lengthen the stitch a touch on satin or decorative programs. Pair with a fine bobbin thread and test your tension on a scrap; a small adjustment usually produces a smooth, uninterrupted line.

    Choose Metallic Effect when you want craftsmanship to lead—and a poised shimmer to complete the story. It’s a dependable way to elevate outline work, echo quilting, geometric motifs and neat edge-stitching without overpowering your fabric.
