Our take on the Gutermann Natural Cotton Thread 273 Yards-White

Gutermann Natural Cotton is a 100% long-staple mercerized cotton thread sold on a 273-yard spool in white. The mercerizing gives it a silk-like luster and makes it fine but strong, soft and flexible, and resistant to tearing and abrasion. It suits buttonholes, applique, decorative stitching, hand and machine sewing, and quilting on cotton fabric. Against polyester all-purpose thread it offers a natural look and a softer hand, but it is less forgiving: owners report it tangles easily, so slower machine speeds and a fresh needle help.

Questions and answers

Is this thread good for machine quilting?
Yes. The long-staple mercerized cotton is fine but strong and works for piecing and quilting on cotton fabric. Use a fresh needle and a moderate speed to limit tangling.
How does it compare with polyester all-purpose thread?
Cotton gives a softer, natural look and a matte-to-satin sheen, and it is biodegradable. Polyester is slicker and stretches more, so it tangles less but looks less natural on cotton.
How much thread is on the spool?
The spool holds 273 yards (about 250 meters) of white thread. That is enough for several small projects or one large quilt.
Can I use it for hand sewing and buttonholes?
Yes. Gutermann lists it for hand and machine sewing, buttonholes, applique and needlework. Its strength and abrasion resistance suit buttonholes well.
Will the white cotton thread shrink or bleed?
Mercerized cotton is more stable than untreated cotton, but cotton can still shrink slightly and white can pick up dye bleed in a hot wash. Prewash colored fabrics before sewing.
