    Superior Threads

    Superior Threads is one of the new comers on the thread scene the last few years. They bring to the market an exquisite polyester thread line from Japan with a lot of variety for hand and machine appliqué, embroidery, quilting, and sewing needs. The polyester thread has low luster that is unique and brings a subtle beauty and strength to the dicerning stitcher.

    The color line is still somewhat small, but Superior over the last couple of years has worked closely with many talented quilting teachers and created color lines specific to art quilters needs. This sensitive to the quilter has produced a loyal following who sing high praises for Superior Threads.
