Product Description
Thread Collection: Black and White Beauty of Carrara
Monochrome Mastery: The Carrara Thread Collection
Enter a world of sculptural grace with Aurifil's Carrara Thread Collection, where the striking simplicity of black and white threads creates a bold statement. Made from 100% MAKO Egyptian Cotton, this trio of 50 weight 2ply threads is spun into a narrative as rich and compelling as the marbled cliffs of Carrara.
Elegance in Every Stitch: The Essence of Italy
The Italy Colour Builder series is proud to present a set that speaks in shades of monochrome. From the purest white, echoing Carrara's marble purity, to the deepest black of the quarried stone's shadow, these threads capture the essence of Italian artistry. A middle grey balances the contrast, offering a transition as smooth as the marble itself.
Crafting with Contrast: Beyond Colour
With the Carrara Thread Collection, quilters and textile artists will find not just a set of threads, but a palette of potential. These spools invite you to explore the interplay of light and shadow, form and texture, as you craft pieces that are as timeless as the Renaissance sculptures themselves.
