Glitter is a premium 40 wt. metallized polyester thread designed for maximum sparkle with reliable performance. Made from holographic mylar wrapped around a polyester core, this flat specialty thread delivers brilliant, light-catching shimmer with smooth stitch formation on home sewing and longarm quilting machines. It feeds more smoothly than traditional metallic threads when used with a larger metallic or topstitch needle and loose top tension, helping reduce breakage.

Best For: Embroidery, decorative stitching, quilting accents, apparel, costume design, seasonal projects, and hair tinsel applications.

Product Details: 400 yards, 40 wt., 4-ply holographic mylar thread.

Recommended Bobbin Thread: Bottom Line

Recommended Needle: Topstitch #90/14 needle

Recommended Setup: For best results, use a larger metallic or topstitch needle and set a looser top tension to optimize stitch quality and minimize breakage. Feed the thread from the side of the spool rather than the top to prevent added twist.
