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

Thomas ★★★★★

The colors in this palette are exactly the warm sunset tones I was hoping for, and the silk has such a lovely sheen on linen. I’ve only had to use a single strand so far, and it’s been gliding through the fabric without any fraying.

Aurora D. ★★★★★

The twist on this silk thread is so smooth it practically glides through fabric without tangling, and the sunset shades are exactly as rich as the photos suggest. I used the orange and dusty pink on a linen hoop and the stitch definition is stunning. Only wish the skeins were a bit longer for the pr

William K. ★★★★★

The colors are genuinely like a desert sunset, each one seems to shift in the light as you stitch. I used the orange and it glides through linen without any of the fraying I’ve dealt with on other threads.
