Gütermann Sulky Rayon 40 brings colour and a silky sheen to machine embroidery and decorative stitching. Made from 100% viscose, it produces soft embroidered details with a reflective finish that highlights the direction and texture of your stitches.
This pack contains five 200 m spools in shade 1147 Christmas Red, giving you 1,000 m of the same colour. It is a practical choice when a shade appears throughout a design or across several matching items.
Christmas Red works well for festive motifs, but its uses extend beyond seasonal projects. Try it for embroidered names, floral patterns, logos or contrasting accents on clothing, bags and home textiles.
Keep the colour code 1147 as your reference when ordering additional thread. Product photographs and screen settings can affect how the shade appears, so use a physical thread sample or colour card when an exact match is important.
The thread is primarily intended for machine embroidery, with further uses in decorative textile work. Typical projects include:
Choose your fabric, stabiliser and stitch settings to suit the project. For seams that need to carry strain, select an appropriate construction thread rather than choosing solely for its decorative appearance.
Gütermann recommends a machine embroidery needle in size NM 70–90 for Rayon 40. Select a suitable needle within that range for your fabric and follow your machine's threading instructions.
Before starting the finished piece, stitch a sample using the same fabric and stabiliser. This lets you check thread tension, stitch density and the appearance of the design, particularly when moving between lightweight fabrics and heavier materials.
