Quilters Anonymous quilt show this weekend! March 15-16-17


The big "Monroe Quilt Show" - an annual extravaganza from Quilters Anonymous - is this weekend at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe!  So many wait all year for this amazing show and their "new" venue (new for a few years) at the fairgrounds has proven to be a great location.  Everything in one space; vendors, demos, snacks, and QUILTS!
 
Threadmongers will be there - you'll need a huge infusion of thread after this long winter!

Here's the link:

Threadmongers - closeout on Treasure hand quilting thread

As most of you know, Threadmongers does not have a retail web site.  I just sell thread at quilt shows (mostly in Washington State) and fill special orders for customers from my home.

Most of you also know that Threadmongers has a TREMENDOUS amount of thread!  

So I'm going to post some special deals here from time to time.  Some will be closeouts and some will be specials for your enjoyment.

Here is a great deal if you are a hand quilter!  Superior's "Treasure" hand quilting thread which is a substantial 30 weight, three-ply glazed thread. 


Take a look at the offer below.  This is sold as a lot of 12 spools only.  Don't need it all?  Go together with a friend and split the order!  I'll take one credit card and mail it to one place. 

These beautiful threads are in a Priority Mail box and ready to go!

Closeout - ONE ONLY- no returns or exchanges  
“Treasure” HAND quilting thread from Superior
Twelve 300 yard spools
30/3
Coated/glazed
Variegated, but the variegations are subtle

5 spools of “Old Lace” #552 – whites to off-whites
4 spools of “Baby Blankie” #566 – multicolored pastels
3 spools of “Little Princess” #  567 – pinks

Kitsap Quilters move show to May 3-4 due to SNOW!

Quilt show fans!  I want to let you know that the Kitsap Quilters’ show was scheduled for this coming weekend, Feb. 15-16.  But the SNOW has foiled this plan and tonight their executive board made the very difficult decision to move the show to May 3-4. 
 
They have requested that the vendors help get the word out that their lovely show will be even lovelier in May and to encourage quilt show lovelies to get this show on their spring calendar.
 
Still held at the Kitsap County fairgrounds in President’s Hall, this show will be as much fun as ever! 
 
Please check Facebook for a new event page from the Kitsap Quilters and also their web site.  Information will be posted as it becomes available. 
 
In the meantime, we can quilt!  And then you'll need THREAD!

Ending 2018 with a Thank You to my customers and friends!

As we close out 2018, I thank my customers and friends for all the Threadmongers support this year!  It has been a great year for quilting and THREAD!!

It continues to be fun for me to attend the regional quilt shows and bring thousands of spools and cones of the BEST threads for your quilts and sewing projects.  You always amaze me with your brilliant designs and I am inspired every time.

And thanks for becoming my friends as well as my customers.  Meeting you is the greatest joy of my micro-business and I'll be forever grateful for your friendship and kindnesses.

My first event for 2019 will be at the Kitsap Quilters' show in February.  I'll publish my schedule for the first six months on this blog very soon. 

I hope you take some time to QUILT this season!  See you in 2019!
