12wt Cotton Thread

Was looking for something that would 'stand-out' when doing patterns on fabric. Was told by my machine manufacturer that the thickest thread I could use was 50wt (50 kilometers = 1kg (lower the number the thicker the thread e.g. 12wt = 12 kilometers weighs 1kg)). However, this works and looks great!
