Bring your embroidery to life with this bright pink Tonkin thread, which is lustrous and slightly puffy thanks to its twisted structure.
This Tonkin embroidery thread, made in France, is composed of textured polyester with a fine strand of gold Lurex woven throughout. The result combines intense color, subtle volume, and shine without requiring multiple metallic strands. This design also minimizes fraying while working and offers good durability for both traditional embroidery and more original designs.
How to use this pink embroidery thread?
Bright pink can become the focal point of a floral pattern or add a few accents to a darker composition. Pair it with red, mauve, or dusty pink to create a monochromatic palette, or contrast it with turquoise and green. A design inspired by this hibiscus border will allow you to make the most of this shade. Bohin embroidery needles will round out your supplies, ensuring precise work.
Tonkin thread can also be used in jewelry making. Embroider a small pattern on a suitable base, add a few beads, and then turn it into a brooch or pendant. Its golden sheen is often enough to add a finishing touch without overwhelming the design.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced designer, we provide tutorials and technical guides with tips, tricks, and explanations to help you improve and explore new ways of working with the thread.
