Nature's finest thread. #50/2 and 50/3 extra-long staple Egyptian cotton for piecing, detail quilting, bobbin, lace, and applique. Very smooth with virtually no lint. 3,000 yds.

MasterPiece is changing from a #50/2-ply thread to a #50/3-ply thread.  The thread is still the same highest quality extra-long staple Egyptian-grown cotton.  With our smooth, tight, even twist, you probably will not notice a difference in size of the thread but you will notice that the new formula is much stronger.
