Exclusive Sublime Stitching x Au Ver à Soie palette!

Spun "Alger" silk thread for hand embroidery from Au Ver à Soie Paris, in a range of sunset, desert-inspired colors I've chosen for you from their dizzying range of colors. Loosely plyed, this silk floss separates easily for work as fine as 1-2 strands. Bright and soft with an excellent tensile strength and smooth twist for snag-free needle working. The unrivaled quality of their raw silk means it does not abrade easily. And yes, it's colorfast and washable!

Au Ver à Soie silks have been made by the same family in Paris since 1820.

There are six colors in the TEQUILA SUNRISE palette.

  • 100% spun silk
  • 7 strand floss
  • 5 meters per skein
  • colorfast and washable
  • Made in France

Ryan ★★★★★

The color transitions in this sunset-inspired set are even more vibrant in person, and the silk glides through fabric with zero fraying. I've already started three new projects just to use more shades.

Andrew ★★★★★

Finally, silk thread that doesn't tangle every two seconds—the strands separate cleanly and glide through the fabric like butter. Stitching these desert-inspired colors onto a linen tote has been a joy, and the sheen is just gorgeous.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The color range in this sunset-inspired palette is even more beautiful in person, and the silk threads have a lovely sheen that makes my stitches pop. I’ve already started a desert landscape piece and the thread glides through fabric without tangling.
