Richard G. ★★★★★

The purple is so vivid it actually makes plain stitching look like jewelry on dark denim, and the 70/30 polyamide-polyester blend glides through my machine without shedding. I've used it for decorative topstitching on two projects now and it still hasn't frayed or dulled.

Natalie ★★★★★

I was worried metallic thread would snap easily, but this one ran smoothly through my machine without any fraying. The sparkle on this purple is really eye-catching without being gaudy, perfect for adding subtle shine to holiday projects.

Andrew ★★★★★

The purple shade is really vibrant and the metallic effect catches the light beautifully when hand-stitching. It’s a bit thicker than standard thread but handled fine with a larger needle.
