Add some warmth to your patterns with this garnet-colored Tonkin thread, made of textured polyester and accented with a fine gold thread.
The garnet color takes on an extra dimension here thanks to the unique structure of Tonkin thread. Made in France, it is composed of textured polyester and wrapped with a fine strand of gold Lurex, which creates a consistent sheen throughout the stitches. Its slight volume gives the embroidery more presence, and its design helps prevent the fraying that often occurs with certain metallic threads.
What can you do with this embroidery thread?
Use this garnet thread to create flowers, autumn foliage, small geometric patterns, or simply to highlight the outlines of a design. It pairs perfectly with red, orange, hazelnut, and brown. A design like this dish towel embroidered with autumn leaves can be reimagined using this rich, warm color palette. For finishing touches, precision thread-cutting scissors allow you to trim the thread cleanly as close to the fabric as possible.
Tonkin thread is also suitable for cross-stitch and can be incorporated into jewelry designs. A few embroidered patterns on a rigid base can be turned into a brooch, a pendant, or a decorative element to pair with beads.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced designer, our tutorials and technical guides offer a wealth of resources to help you choose your tools, learn stitches, and develop your own designs.
