7001 Natural White
MicroQuilter 7001 Natural White is the most-used MicroQuilter colour — a warm natural white that blends invisibly with natural, cream, and warm-toned cotton fabrics. At 100wt it produces virtually invisible stitches for micro-stippling and wholecloth work. For bright white fabrics choose 7002 Lace White instead; the rest of the light-to-grey working spread is covered in the neutral colour guide, and the line's fundamentals live in the MicroQuilter 100wt overview.
100wt 2-ply polyester. Large cone.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do I choose Natural White over Lace White?
Natural White carries a warm undertone that melts into unbleached muslins, creams, ivories, and the warm low-volume prints that dominate traditional quilting. On a bright optic-white background it can read faintly warm — that's when Lace White takes over. If the fabric leans warm at all, 7001 is the default.
Why is 7001 the studio workhorse of the MicroQuilter range?
Because most quilt backgrounds are warm lights, and at 100wt the thread's job is to vanish — one warm white covers an enormous share of incoming work. Studios doing edge-to-edge and micro-fill work often keep multiple 7001 cones so a colour decision never stalls the frame.
What settings help 100wt run cleanly?
A fine needle (70/10–75/11), slightly reduced top tension, and a modestly shorter stitch length for micro-work. The fine polyester runs fast and cool; if you see the bobbin thread peeking, loosen the top rather than tightening the bobbin.
