Embroider delicate details with this ecru Tonkin thread, which has a slight fullness and golden sheen.
This ecru shade creates a soft, luminous finish thanks to the fine strand of gold Lurex woven into the yarn. Made in France from textured polyester, Tonkin has a slight fullness that allows the stitches to stand out beautifully. Its cabled structure minimizes fraying and ensures a smoother stitching experience, especially on patterns with numerous stitches.
How to use this embroidery thread?
The ecru shade can be used for tone-on-tone embroidery on linen, beige, or white fabrics, but it also creates an interesting contrast on a black background. A 20-cm embroidery hoop will help you maintain even tension. To combine thread, sequins, and beads, check out our selection of beaded embroidery supplies.
This color lends itself particularly well to minimalist embroidered jewelry. Create a small flower, a moon, or an abstract pattern in ecru and gold, then turn it into a pendant or brooch. You can also add a few pearlescent beads to enhance its luminous effect.
