At my house, chickens sit on nests of thread. Well…maybe not, but how else can I explain my dozen or so storage boxes of thread?
January 30: I like thread.
P.S. I’ve never met a thread I didn’t like. I use all sorts of fiber types, finishes, colors and name brands (not limited to these because I’m sure to leave somebody out, in alphabetical order: Aurifil, Coats & Clark, Gutermann, Madeira, Mettler, Signature, Sulky, Superior, YLI).
I piece with Aurifil Cotton Mako and Superior Masterpiece- both 50 weight/2 ply threads. When you sew fabrics together with a skinny thread, you’ll get better results: the thread takes up very little space compared to a thicker thread.
If you can’t find Aurifil in your hometown local shop, go to www.pumpkinvinecorner.com for a wide selection, great price and fast service.
