Product description

Add some warmth to your embroidery with this textured orange Tonkin thread and its subtle hint of gold Lurex.

Made in France, this Tonkin thread combines orange textured polyester with a very fine strand of gold Lurex. The Lurex adds a subtle yet noticeable sheen, while the thread’s slightly puffy texture gives the stitches depth. Its good cohesion prevents fraying and makes it easy to work with in embroidery projects that involve frequent changes in direction.

How to use this orange embroidery thread?
Orange is ideal for depicting petals, leaves, fruit, or small graphic details. Pair it with garnet, brown, and hazelnut for an autumnal color palette, capturing the spirit of this leaf-embroidered dish towel. Precision thread-cutting scissors will help you finish your project neatly.

For a more contemporary look, pair orange with turquoise or bright pink. You can also embroider small shapes to be mounted as jewelry: fruit, flowers, suns, or abstract patterns. Adding a few beads around the design will create a more elaborate composition.

Our tutorials and technical guides are available for beginners as well as experienced creators. You’ll find tips, tricks, and explanations to help you refine your techniques and bring fresh ideas to your creations.
