Presencia Perle Finca Threads
Presencia Perle no.8 cotton thread is now available. This excellent thread can be used for blanketstitch, running stitch for naive applique, stitcheries, hand embroidery and for tying quilts.
The 100% cotton thread is colourfast and the manufacturers - Presencia from Valencia in Spain, claim the thread is also resistant to fading from UV light.
Perle Cotton has a distinctive twist which gives it a nice finish. The thread is easy to work with and very smooth through fabric. There are 50 plain colours and 20 variegated colours on 10g balls.
