Aurifil Thread Collection Giveaway! — 397 Comments

  1. OMG Tammy, what WOULDN’T I make with those luscious colors? I’m thinking an incredible underwater scene, and whatever’s left would go into fun table runners (my new obsession).

  2. I would make a rainbow style quilt 🙂 the thread would go nicely with bright basic colors 🙂 I liked your Facebook page also (The Amateur Quilter) amateurquilter at gmail

  4. Those are great colors of threads. Beautiful. I would use these to sew quilts and so many things. I NEED quilting threads very badly as I have only about 5 spools.

    I have done machine embroidery since getting my sewing machine in late 2003, but two years ago I switched my attentions over to quilting as I wanted to learn. I have tons of fabric, but as I mentioned, very little thread. These would be so nice to have so I can use something other than the gray or black I do have. My hopes are to make a quilt for everyone in my family as well as all three of our grandchildren.

    I have also ‘liked’ your FB page as well.

    Thank you.

  5. OOOOh, love all the colors of these threads….I would use them in quilts and as top stitching on some of my garments that I am making! Love thread because it inspires my creativity when sewing!

  9. These are beautiful. I’d use them for machine quilting. I love this thread for piecing but have not quilted with it yet.

  10. I could make gorgeous quilts with this thread. Aurifil is the best thread and so many wonderful, luscious colors! I would love to win this collection. Pick me, pick me!

  11. Hello! Those colors are gorgeous. I’m joining a BOM next year and I would love to use this thread! I also liked your page on facebook!

  12. These colors are so luscious…..and my favorites….Brights and bold. these would embellish so many of my projects. thanks for the opportunity.

  13. My NY resolution is to pick up my quilting where I left off 5 years ago, which was cutting a bunch of squares. The variety in these threads would add a fun dimension once I start quilting the top.

  14. I just started sewing/quilting. There are so many quilts I would like to make and this would help me 🙂

  16. Most of what I make is small quilted accessories. Sometimes I quilt the heck out of pieces and am eager to get back to that. I especially enjoy varigated threads for the quilting I do. It becomes a bit more of an embellishment.

    These are beautiful threads!

  17. I would make a great crazy quilt with this thread… I would use my machine embroidery to at some special designs to it.

  18. I would make a quilt for my new grandbaby who is due in July for starters, and the one for each of my other grandkids. This is a wonderful prize to win. Thanks for the opportunity.

  19. I am just starting, i have the new machine, yet i have not plugged it in yet. What am i waiting for?? fabric,thread and the basic, to begin a project. I have a very creative mind, but it has not started the the program. I know, and can see exactly the kinds of things i want to make. I guess they are not typical,as ladies, kinda look at me sideways, when i describe what i plan to make. So the best thread will/would be a wonderful gift.

  20. Gosh, I am new to the world of quilting so my world is WIDE-OPEN. I don’t really even a thread stash yet!
    so fun.

  24. What beautiful thread! I had just mentioned to the co-owner of our LQS that I love thread as much as fabric! And since I am a relatively new quilter, I would take the thread into my LQS and let them help me pick out a project for each spool! lol (I received cash and a GC as Christmas gifts that are just waiting to be used!)

  25. If I won that beautiful thread I would use it in a quilt I will be making for my best friend as she is having major health problems. I want her to have a quilt to wrap up in on days that she needs a hug.

    I liked Facebook page.

    Thanks

    Cathy

  26. I LOVE Aurifil and use it almost exclusively. I never use anything else for piecing quilts as the texture and silkiness of the thread buries itself in the fabric. I love the feel & look of it when using a heavier weight for the actual quilting. And it is absolutely wonderful in hand applique, as well. So, I would use these lovely threads to enhance all of my quilting projects.

  28. I want to do a quilt with applique flowers and this thread would be perfect. Thank you for the chance to win

  29. I would use this to learn to do free motion quilting on the quilt that I just started. I have heard so many good things about Aurifil that I would love to try this.

  30. I would do threadplay and longarm quilting on the solid hexies quilt I have designed. These threads are gorgeous:)

  32. I would experiment with each and every one of them!!! Maybe try some satin stitch on an appliqué quilt. Or see how pretty they would be for quilting… They are luscious!

    Thank you!

  33. With this beautiful color selection I’m thinking of a nice spring wall hanger. The colors would cheer and brighten up any wall!

  34. Oh my gosh the possibiities are endless. I can see them in a beautiful spring flower quilt to name but one.

  35. I have the perfect quilt that’s ready to quilt. It’s yellow, black, white, gray and the variegated yellow would be perfect for it. And, right now I’m piecing scrappy blocks for a log cabin quilt. It’ll be queen size when it’s done. Almost any of those sumptuous colors would be perfect for quilting it. I just love Aurifil threads!!

  36. It would definitely use these threads on a quilt! I’d love to make a rainbow zipper pouch too and could use this thread for hand quilting. thank you for a chance to win, I’ve liked your Facebook page.

  37. I think they would be gorgeous to quilt doll quilts with. The variegated colors are divine. Lovely giveaway, I found it through Facebook and Aurifil. I also “liked” your FB page- looks like a lot of great inspiration there.

  38. Well as I have never tried Aurifil winning this would be a great way to start using it on the quilt’s I want to make.

  39. I just love using this thread. I have several quilts that are ready to quilt (who doesn’t?) and this would be perfect to do the quilting! I also am working on a memorial quilt of my late Lady and some of the spools would be perfect for the thread painting of her coat.

  41. My imagination runs wild with all the differnt Quilts I could make with these threads! They are all so spectacular! I would use some for Quilts for Family & friends, some for charity Quilts and some just for fun on holiday decorations- as I like to have table runners & wall hanging for all seasons & for all holidays- Everything from Christmas & New Years to ground day & flag day & all the otehrs inbetween! Thank you for making such a beautiful rainbow of threads!

  42. Oh My Heart, I would make anything and everything from the many UFO quilts to holiday gifts on my already long list. I love aurifil thread, although I only have a few at the moment.
    Another on the list of To~Do’s is to make all five of my grand children bigger quilts, as they are growing like weeds. And finally one for myself too.

    Thank You.
    Carol

  44. I am a new Aurifil convert. LOVE this thread!

    Last year I did a rainbow charm swap. I would use these threads to quilt my rainbow quilt. =)

    Thank you for the chance to win!!

  45. I just love Aurifil thread, haven’t used any other thread since Istarted using Aurifil. I would use it in everything I make.

  46. I would love to use these to add beautiful color and detail to some of my quilts and projects I’ve been wanting to make with Tula Pink fabrics! 😀 They’re gorgeous!

  47. Gorgeous! Thanks for the chance. I am new to quilting, am currently working on my first lap quilt! I’m excited to try more. I would love to try a quilt with many colours, and then quilt with these gorgeous colours! I’m still a little lost trying to figure out which threads for machine and which for hand quilting though.

  48. I’m pretty new to quilting so I haven’t tried fabulous Aurifil thread yet. I understand that the 12 weight is good for hand quilting so maybe I would start with a mug rug or table runner with some hand quilting on it. Thanks for the chance!

  49. This is a great giveaway! I have a quilt right now ready to be quilted. I have never used Aurifil before but really want to try it. This would be a great start:)

  50. I love to thread paint and quilt very “heavy” onmy art quilts,this would be the inspiration for a new piece of art. Oh the pretty things I could make with those……

  51. So many beautiful quilts in my head that would stitch up with this thread – Most for my two grandsons, the light of my life! Thank you!

  53. O am just learning to quilt and embroider. I have a very small stash of fabric but no thread yet! I’d love to win this wonderful candy!!!

  54. Yum! Those colors are luscious! When I first started sewing clothing, I hardly thought about thread. When I started quilting, thread became more important. Now, as an art quilter, thread is as important as fabric, and I especially love variegated threads. I would use these for free-motion quilting, thread sketching, free-motion machine embroidery and tons more!

  58. I would finally make the double wedding ring quilt for my son and daughter in law. They just had their 3rd anniversary and I think it’s about time. Would love to put these threads into it for both beauty and quality.

  60. I do believe this would be great on my first attempt on a quilt. I have been cruising the net for craft ideas and have come across some great ideas and some video classes for quilts.

  62. I love to use varigated thread on quilt tops and wall hangings and think these would be a lovely collection to choose from.

  63. I’m about ready to quilt a flannel quilt and this variegated thread would be perfect!!!

  64. I love to use these threads for embellishment! I recently watched Libby Lehman’s video on “Threadplay” and want to try a project from it. Her methods are fantastic and she is a wonderful teacher!

  65. I think I would quilt with several of them on the same quilt that has a lot if white negative space. That would be so colorful and pretty!

  66. I am drawing out a quilt for our bed right now. These would be a beautiful complement to my quilt! I love the bright colors.

  67. Oh my the possibilities are endless…quilting…topstitching some for some clothes for my girl’s. What a beautiful selection of thread. I have box of other fun colors and I just like to open the container and look at them…so pretty laying there all together!!! Thanks for the chance to win!!

  68. if i win i would use it to quilt the the three quilt tops i have because these are just the colours i´d need

  69. Would love to use this thread on a quilt for my oldest grand-daughter & also have a grandson due in April our first grand SON. Everyone is so excited. Beautiful threads for beautiful quilts! If i won I would have to use on something for myself as I have yet to make a quilt and keep it…this would be a good time for me to do so!

  71. These exciting threads are ideal for quilting a couple of lovely bright quilts that are in my UFO drawer. Winning them would certainly inspire me to open that drawer and get quilting!

    Thanks for the opportunity to enter

  72. Gorgeous!
    Of course at first I would just lovingly stare at the box, reluctant to use any of the thread candy. Then I would tear right in and use it wherever I wanted to show off some great stitching. I would use it for decorative stitches on girl’s dresses, applique, and mini art quilts.

  74. I believe I would attempt my very first quilting project with these fine threads! Thx for the chance – awesome giveaway!!!

  76. I would definitely use this thread for some decorative machine quilting, especially on smaller projects like table runners or wall hangings, where I can try different designs. I love fancy threads and guess I’m also a “threadaholic” as well as a “fabricholic”! Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂

  77. I’m thinking some machine quilting with these threads would be lovely!
    Thank you for the giveaway and I liked BOMQuilts on Facebook!

  79. Hi,

    I would use it to quilt my hexagones quilt. I’m assembling it at te moment, kind of grandmothers’ flower garden quilt. The variegated colors will look great on the cream hexagones.

    Kind regards,
    Inge from belgium

  80. I just LOVE these colors!! Wow! I would definitely use them to make a quilt. I just bought a Cuzco FQ Bundle, and these colors would go great with that fabric, as well as other fabrics I have.

  81. As I was lying in bed last night, feeling kind of chilly, I thought to myself, “Maybe it’s time I attempted a quilt.” I guess that would be the project!

  82. I’ve never tried Aurifil thread, but would sure LOVE to! I have been piecing quilt tops and need to quilt them now so I can give some away. I think these threads would go beautifully with the colors of fabrics in my quilts.
    I’m waiting on thread to complete my quilts, but am waiting for money to buy some – to win this would solve both my troubles! :^)
    Going to ‘like’ you now!!

  83. I think these colors would work wonderfully in a quilt challenge I want to make!! Some would be used for the quilting, others–for the hand applique!! The colors are fantastic!

  86. These would be perfect for quilting a BOM hand embroidery quilt I am working on. The colors are perfect.

  87. I would use this thread to do some standout quilting on a quilt with a minimalist design. I’d love to try to change my design focus from piecing to quilting!

  89. I have this idea of a solids quilt in a monochromatic color scheme. I’d love to use the Aurifil as the jumping off point for that.

  90. I would love to try Aurifil threads, all the different colors, on some table runners I want to make I have not used Aurifil thread as yet, but have seen so many advertisements on Aurifil.

  91. I’d make a nice bright quilt to go with the nice bright thread!

  92. Oh my! What a wonderful giveaway! I have wanted to try my hand at applique and I see a wonderful new project in my future, should I win the Aurifil thread.

  94. These 12 wt threads would be perfect for doing buttonhole stitch on raw edge applique. I have lots of ideas for flowers, trees, and even houses for this coming years projects. I’d also like to try some big stitch hand quilting with these threads!

  95. I love Aurafil threads. Its so fine, doesn’t get linty like other threads and sews beautifully on any fabric. I would make another quilt, some bags, curtains for my sewing room, little dresses for my granddaughter and who knows what else. Would love to have this wonderful assortment of thread to choose from. thank you.

  96. I would use them as color inspiration for small art quilts and then quilt each one with the inspirational spool–then take photos, post them to fb and tag Alex in a thank you to aurifil!

  97. These are such beautiful colors! A landscape? seascape? fall colors? So many ideas are whirling in my head! My best friend lives in Washington state and I am planning a special project just for her. To wrap herself in when she gets lonely for our home-state of Texas.

  99. I have been seeing this thread featured everywhere and would love to try it out on my nieces quilt.

  100. Looking forward to the endless possiblities of amazing creations this rainbow of threads will provide!

  101. I plan on making a new quilt for my little one’s new bed. She went from twin to full and needs a new quilt!

  102. If I win, I´ll “paint” with these beautiful threads. I would also use some for quilting my finish projects.
    Regards
    Carmen in Sweden

  103. Oh my goodness the ideas I have. Love to make totes so decorative stitches would be one. And blanket stitching down hexies … Yes I could really have fun with these. Thank you & Aurifil!!

  105. I am trying to regain my quilting mojo and these would be just the inspiration I need! I recently bought my first spool or aurifil and I am hooked!

  108. Love Aurifil Thread!!! I would use this beautiful thread to make my grandchildren new quilts for next Christmas. Since I use alot of bright colors, this varigated thread would blend beautifully on the machine top quilting I do for each one. Auriful is the best thread on the market today……Thanks for the great give-a-way!

  109. I have a quilt for my daughter’s senior quilt that those colors would so beautiful with. Thanks for the opportunity.

  112. I would definitely enjoy making a ‘happy quilt’ with those beautiful colors. The threads would make it spectacular!

  113. I would match the thread to different quilt tops and start a quilting storm. I don’t have any of this Aurifil thread weight so it would be great to try it out.

  114. With those gorgeous threads, I would have to make something beautiful and bright for the baby’s room.

  115. the threads are so yummy……thank you for letting me put my name in the ring…..I have promised my self to start on next years Christmas in January ..this sure would give me an extra boost…

  117. I use aurifil almost exclusively and would love to add this to my collection!! I am working on several projects that could use these beautiful threads!!

  118. I came here by way of Aurifil’s FB post (and subsequently “liked” you on FB).

    I’m a total thread geek. And I was seriously drooling at this collection for just the color… but then I saw that it was 12 wt. (my latest thread obssession) of variegated love on a spool… Yummy!

    I would definitely be thread-painting or accent-quilting a brightly-colored piece using this thread.

    (fanning self)

  120. I love, love ,love this thread and the combonations are so pretty. I use the 12 ct. for my applique quilts . I could really use this thread as I know I could never afford this much at once. Thanks for showing us this.

  121. These thread colors would be beautiful quilted on the rainbow lap quilt i am currently working on. I love Aurifil threads and so does my sewing machine <3

  122. I would use it a quilt I am going to make for my instant grand daughter I am going to have in a year and a half from now.

  124. I have been wanting to do a whole cloth with black fabric and bright threads, in a zenTangle type pattern. These would be perfect.

  125. I would use the thread on a quilt I need to finish for the Hope circle of do. good stitches! Thank you for the giveaway!

  127. I’m hoping to make and embroider Christmas stocking for each of my 7 children, their spouses and my (so far) 9 grandchildren. This thread would make beautiful stockings!

  128. I have some blankets that need quilted as well as a couple bags to make and this thread would really make them pop!

  129. I would love to try these variegated threads for quilting. Or maybe machine embroidered free-standing lace. I’ve used 12 wt white towith give them a crocheted look but the variegated might be really pretty.

  130. What would I make? What couldn’t you make…? I have many UFO’s because I just don’t have time to find the right color thread, can’t afford it or just plain can’t find the right color…Endless possibilites for this one. Including homemade cards for different holidays & occasions and even some scrapbooking 😉

  131. Such lovely thread, I would make a bright and cheerful quilt with black as my background and lots of colors in the blocks. This thread pack has a lot of my favorite colors…. just love it!! And I love the little storage box too!!!

  132. I love Aurifil thread. Right now I have five quilt tops completed that need to be quilted. I’d love to win some Aurifil thread. Thank you for the opportunity!!

  133. What a wonderful offering! And since it is 12 wt. cotton thread – in these great colors – I would use it for my art quilt embellishments, hand embroidery on Santa Cookie mats for next Christmas, on some repair work to a quilt my grandmother made in 1965 (crazy quilt), in some of my needlepoint, and not least, on a special quilt I’m making for an old family friend in NY

  134. Those colors are fabulous! I really need more Aurifil thread because I just started using it and LOVE it!

  136. Oh!!!! They are beautiful!!!! I would use these with my decorative stitches on my machine to decorate a quilt for me. I have made several quilts for pro bono, my children, my grandson, but one for me and my hubby. I love Aurifil thread and would use this on my purple quilt for my guest bed, and my pro bono quilts for Wrap Them in Love. I am also making some crazy quilt pillows and these would look beautiful on them. Thank you for the opportunity to win this!

  137. I’d do more free motion quilting! I just love Aurifil 12wt for quilting! I have a few spools but would love to such a nice variety to choose from! Thanks for the chance! And a very Happy, Quilty New Year to all!

  139. I would definitely use these threads to “paint” a whole cloth quilt or pillow and experiment with adding depth to an art quilt piece. Yummy colors.

  140. I lobe auriful threads. I would use these for quilting, as I love
    variegated threads for my quilting.

  141. I have never tried this weight of thread. With all those beautiful colors I would love to top stitch a bed runner. The colors would show up so nicely. Thanks for the chance to win.

  142. I am getting back into quilting after a “life moment”. I design my own wool and mixed fiber applique wall hangings and do a lot of beading and handwork on them. Aurifil sounds like a good thread to have in my artbox.

  143. I have been wanting to get back into making appliqued items. Winning this giveaway would help get me started.

  145. I would use this beautiful thread to quilt a pieced top that has been waiting for just the right thread to bring out its pattern. This thread is it!!!

  146. I would make lots of QUILTS and Kid’s Clothing…I just got my first spool of Aurifil the other day and am in LOVE!!!!!

  148. I have to be honest, I haven’t used Aurifil yet, but have been very eager to try it. Maybe I will be so lucky! The colors look yummy and it would be a happy time quilting with them!

  149. If I were to win this thread I would make my daughter a quilt. She is getting married this June and these colors would make a quilt a sunny and bright as she is! 🙂

  150. With this kind of assortment, I’d probably use it for thread painting. Reading other’s comments I’d try it out for piecing and garments too. I never tried this brand out.

  151. Oh I love bright colors to use in quilting my bright quilts and wallhangings. Can’t have too many colors.

  153. What a wonderful give away. I love Aurifil threads. These colors would be perfect for the quilt that I am working on right now! Right, colorful and happy!

  154. Just got a brand new shiny embroidery sewing machine. Haven’t even purchased thread yet. I make quilts for kids in Child Protective Services who often have absolutely nothing when they leave their homes. This thread would be perfect for that! I’d really, really love to have this thread! Please? Thanks

  156. I would make my first quilt! I’ve only just now started quilting and got a new sewing machine for Christmas 🙂

  157. These are so pretty! I have several quilt tops I would love to use these on for the quilting. One is a scrappy hunter star in brights. I think they would be gorgeous on it!

    Thanks for the chance!

  159. Every spool of Aurifil goes directly into a quilt. I usually use white or
    Creme for piecing, and with the gorgeous colors in these spools, they would make fantastic quilting colors!!!

  161. Aurifil is my very favorite thread for piecing and applique! I’ve been drooling over the 12 wt colors to use for embroidery. This would solve my problem of having to decide. Thanks.

  163. As someone who does not have many thread colors (bought a machine a few months ago and a college student, so super busy), I would try to finally match my thread color to my fabric color. I think I would work on a quilt first – it feels like I have been cutting out quilt pieces for months!

  164. They are so beautiful! I would make quilts, and table runners, and wall hangings, and bird ornaments, and and and …..

  165. I’m not sure what I’d make yet. I just like to look at them for a while, they are lovely.

  167. I’d use this thread to quilt some quilt tops that I have pieced. I have a birds of USA squares one set off with patches of white and bordered with blue; a bright one with dark pink/electric blue/yellow squares; one with autumn-themed prints; and a modern one composed of squares featuring brightly colored dots and rectangles of various sizes. I also have some peacock-themed fabric to make into a quilted hanging, and some Passage to India fabrics that I have saved to make into tote bags for myself and friends.

  169. I got a new HQ Sweet 16 for my birthday/Christmas/Anniversary (all in December) and love to thread paint. This thread would give me tons of options to create something beautiful. I’ve been working on doing some mock-redwork designs for practice. Thanks for offering such a great giveaway!!

  171. OH MY, such lovely threads!! They would make me feel like a little kid in a candy store!! I would use them to embellish quilts and clothing. Thank you for the chance to win!!

  172. I love making things for little ones and these would add a little fun to the items I make! Thank you for the opportunity!

  173. These thread colors are gorgeous! I would love to win them. I’ve been quilting for 18 years and would use these to quilt some wall hangings. I enjoy making small flower or bird quilts – these threads would be perfect.

  176. I am starting to make my Christmas gifts for 2013, so I would use this prize in all of my quilt projects for the year.

  179. I would like to make. “Crazy” quilt out of wool and use the decorative stitches on my machine ….. this would be lovely!

  180. Aurifil is my favorite. As a somewhat new quilter who has just started to do free motion, these threads with their fabulous colors excites me with the possibilities. Thanks for the opportunity! Now if you’ll excuse me I’m off to look at the BOM FB page again. Looked very interesting!

  183. Oh wow . They are do beautiful . I have some of your threads
    But not much . I love to quilt wall hangers , quilts , & I love to appliqué with all those beautiful colors . I would love to win them . I also like the BOM site. . Thanks

  184. Love the colors of those threads. I think I’d use it with applique designs, I can see the colors surrounding the fabric and giving it just the right finishing touch!

  185. My husband has been begging for a denim quilt. I think these threads will bring beautiful color to this project.

  188. Oh my I would find lots of things to sew with these wonderful threads.
    Quilts, wall-hangings, purses, totes the list goes on.
    Happy new year.

  189. Oh my…….purses, totes, table runners, wall hangings….and maybe a quilt!!!! The possibilities really are endless with that fabulous selection of colors! I love this thread and use it often!

    It’s really great to see a contest like this one!

  192. These threads are beautiful! I would use it to quilt my quilts. I’ve never used Aurifil before, I don’t know where to buy it here in the Netherlands. I love these colors!

  193. I would finish the three quilts I have already going on. None of the threads I have, now, look like those; they r beautiful.

  194. I just got a new embroidery machine. This thread would allow me to do many projects and to finish the quilt squares I have ready to assemble. What a great opportunity. Thank you!

  195. I would quilt my “Rainbow Connection” quilt top (a UFO) with them…the colors are perfect!

  196. It would be interesting to try thread painting with the heavier weighted thread. Also, use it when a prominent thread display is needed with applique. I have a applique that I want to do that has a cartoon figure with patchwork shorts on. The heavy thread would be fun to try with a decorative stitch across the short pieces.

  198. I just started using Aurifil thread recently and have been very happy with them. I would love to have the beautiful threads shown for a variety of projects.

  199. I love them! Probably the two things I’d do with them are to use them for machine quilting or thread painting, otherwise I’d use them for satin stitching around the edges of fused appliques.

  200. I think I would use those to embellish a rainbow ticker-tape quilt that I’m planning to make… oh, how wonderful this thread would show on the scraps of fabric…
    Aurifil just adds the touch of extravanganza to every quilt!

  201. I’m going to make bed liners this year. I have never done this before so it will be my new project. This thread would be wonderful for that project!

  202. I’m not sure what I would use a 12 weight thread for, something decorative. Probably would not waste such beautiful colors with piecing.

  203. I haven’t tried Aurufil yet.. but I’ve been dying to! I keep hearing such great things about it. 😀 I’d use this to make a pretty rainbow quilt.

    I liked the FB page. Thanks for the giveaway!

  205. I would use it to quilt a top I have ready to quilt..it has all colors….I LOVE Aurifil thread. I have been using it for about two years now, and I either have to order it or drive 80 miles to buy it in the store….whatever…its worth it!

  206. I ‘m not a 100% sure what I’d make, but I can guarantee I would top stitch, top stitch and then top stitch some more!

  207. I love the colors and would make a quilt I am sure, the choices are many! This would also be my first time using what looks like an amazing thread.

  209. I would like to make a colorful, nature oriented quilt and for the first time make it for me! I really like using varigated thread for leaves and flowers and rocks, etc.. It makes things look so much more natural. I sewed until 2 a.m. making presents and still have more to finish but for once I would like something snuggly. With all the stress of the Holidays my Lupus really kicked up as well as my Parkinson’s and back. I feel a little selfish in wishing for this but there it is!

  210. Such beautiful thread! ! ! I would definitely use this thread on my quilts. I love the look of variegated threads on a quilt top. Since they are 12 weight, they may be a little heavy for machine lace; however, they would make up great machine crocheted designs. AND — they would make great threads to decorate fabrics before making clothing.

    Thanks,

    Sandi

  211. Wow how beautiful. I would do applique I am just starting and those colors are perfect. If I don’t win where can I buy these I live so far away from anything that I need to know a website I can get these from. Thanks

  212. I am just learning to quilt, only been doing it for about 1 month, so I really need to build my thread collection, these threads are all so pretty I think they would highlight a bed quilt so beautifully

    Thank you for a wonderful giveaway!

  312. I love verigated threads!! I just used some for the trim on my daughters doll sheets and pillowcases, in a scalloped pattern. These I would probably do the same, but quilting on white/rainbow quilt would look great as well. Thanks! I liked the fb page.

  376. I love the Aurifil thread. It is so beautiful, bright, and so vivid and true. I’m going to try and hand quilt on a quilt frame I just bought.

  377. How about a pretty hexie quilt? In all the colors of the beautiful thread. Thanks for the giveaway!
