Sewing thread Brother Madeira viscose 1187 pink 1000 m spool

Brother Madeira viscose sewing thread in color 1187 (pink) on a 1000 m spool is a smooth, high-sheen thread designed for visible seams, decorative stitching and embroidery. Made from viscose and produced by Brother, this thread offers consistent thickness and a silky finish that enhances garment edges, appliqué details and surface decoration. The 1000 m length on a single spool reduces spool changes during extended projects and suits both machine and hand sewing applications where appearance and a smooth feed are important.

Advantages

The viscose composition delivers a noticeable sheen and soft touch that mimics silk while maintaining reliable strength for machine use. Consistent diameter and smooth fiber surface reduce friction and thread breaks, enabling steady feed through presser feet and tension mechanisms. The long 1000 m spool lowers interruption during large projects, and the colorfast dyeing ensures stable color for visible seams and embellishments.

Suitable for

• Machine embroidery and decorative stitching
• Visible seams and topstitching on garments
• Appliqué, surface embellishment and quilt accents
• Hand-sewing details where a silky finish is required

How to use

Use this Brother Madeira viscose thread in standard domestic or commercial sewing machines and in hand-sewing tasks. Thread the spool according to your machine manufacturer’s threading path, adjust tension and needle size appropriate for lightweight to medium-weight fabrics, and perform a short stitch test on a scrap to confirm feed and tension. For embroidery, select stabilizer and hooping consistent with fabric weight to prevent puckering, and use an embroidery needle suitable for rayon/viscose threads. Trim and secure thread ends after finishing visible seams to preserve appearance.

Usage recommendations

Store the spool away from direct sunlight and high humidity to retain color and fiber integrity. When switching between thread types or colors, clean the machine path if lint or residue is present. For best visual results on high-sheen viscose thread, choose matching or contrasting thread color deliberately and test on fabric samples before final stitching.
