ABOUT Ellana™

Engineered with hand wool appliqué in mind, Ellana™ is a 12wt 2 ply, 50/50 Merino Wool/Acrylic blend. The wool provides a rich colour palette and soft loft, while the acrylic gives the thread unbelievable strength. Its perfect twist allows the thread to gently coat the edge of wool appliqué, melting into the wool. The result is an almost invisible whipstitch which creates a smooth, clean edge prepared for embellishing. Ellana™ is fray resistant and contains significantly less fuzz, rendering an unparalleled smoothness. Its soft loft is ideal for creating delicate detail when used for hand embroidery. Available in 60 original Sue Spargo colours on manageable 70 yard spools. These colours match Sue's Efina™ cotton thread and wool fabric lines so that projects can easily be coordinated.

“

I have been using Ellana wool thread for my wool applique for a few years now and the more I use it the more I appreciate the quality. I love that it blends so nicely with the wool felt and the felted wool. I like to use it to attach my applique pieces with small whip stitches. I also find it is beautiful to use for decorative stitches where you want finer lines and more intricate details.
