Anchor Linen Embroidery Thread 15m Card – 16 Colours Available

Anchor Linen Embroidery Thread 15m brings a beautifully natural finish to your stitching, making it a wonderful choice for button making, hand sewing and heirloom embroidery. Made from 100% linen, this thread has a soft yet slightly rustic texture that adds depth and character to every stitch.

Whether you are wrapping Dorset buttons, adding decorative hand embroidery to garments, or stitching delicate textile projects, Anchor Linen Embroidery Thread offers both strength and versatility. Its six-strand construction allows you to separate the thread easily, giving you full control over stitch weight and detail.

This range includes a carefully selected palette of soft, nature-inspired shades. Each card contains 15 metres of thread, ideal for small projects or building a cohesive colour collection for larger designs.

Some shades are being discontinued by the supplier. Once shades such as 003 Bone and 010 Apricot sell out, they will not be restocked.

For best results in embroidery or button making projects, we recommend purchasing enough thread from the same dye lot to complete your project.

Please note: colours may vary slightly between dye lots and screens. We recommend checking our colour disclaimer page before purchasing.
