Product Description
Thread Collection: The Sardinia Pinks
Capture the Essence of Sardinia
The Sardinia Thread Collection by Aurifil is an ode to the breathtaking beauty of the Mediterranean. These threads, spun from 100% MAKO Egyptian Cotton, bring the 50 weight 2ply finesse that artisans desire. Each shade of pink in the collection reflects the island's natural palette, from the soft hues of dawn to the vivid colors of a blossoming Mirto.
A Palette Inspired by the Mediterranean
Three large spools, each a unique shade of pink, offer a range that captures the spirit of Sardinia's famed Spiaggia Rosa. The colors transition smoothly from a delicate blush to a vibrant rose, reminiscent of the island's stunning sunsets and floral abundance.
Weaving the Warmth of Italian Summers
Whether you're quilting, sewing, or crafting, the Sardinia Collection brings the warmth of Italian summers to your creations. The threads are not just a tool, but an invitation to create with the vibrancy and emotion of Sardinia's picturesque landscapes.
