Need Aurifil? Here's an idea!

Here's a little reminder that I can get 12 of the 1300 meter spools of Aurifil in one USPS Priority Mail box!  Don't need 12?  Maybe you and a friend or two can go together on an order.  After all that holiday gift sewing, you probably need thread!!

Message me here or on Facebook for details.  Just search for "Threadmonger".

Yes, I have the #2600 gray!

A Christmas thread...

We're winding down the year - how many of you are still working on Christmas quilts and other gifts?  I'm done!  Delivered the last of them on Friday.  Then had a fun birthday weekend and now I'm updating my spreadsheet (!) with projects finished for 2015 and planned for 2016.  I'm going to hunker down and QUILT until my first show in February with the Kitsap Quilters.

Thanks to all of you who shopped with me and got some great THREAD for your quilts this year.  Use it up!  And make a resolution to try some new threads in the New Year.  There are so many great products and options for quilting.  I have some ideas and some surprises for you in 2016.

And, if you're still frantic, THREAD makes a great Christmas gift for your quilting friends!  I'm here for you!

Let's have some quilting adventures!

Block Party Quilters Issaquah show - Nov. 13-14-15 at the Issaquah Community Center!

We're coming to the end of the "guild quilt show season" here in Western Washington and the very best way to wrap it up is with the Block Party Quilters in Issaquah!  They have a beautiful show planned, in a beautiful location.  The Issaquah Community Center must have been designed with quilt shows in mind!

Always a great show with TALENTED quilters, BPQ will host featured quilt artist Janet Steadman, harpist David Michael, a tea room for your snacking needs, and 20 STELLAR vendors such as - wait for it - THREADMONGERS!!

So come on down and enjoy the last guild show before your winter quilting marathon begins.  I know you are most productive during the cold months...especially leading up to Christmas!  And guess what?  You'll need THREAD! 

Bring your list of needs and any fabric you want to find that special thread for.  Many of my customers now carry a list of threads they need or threads they have in their smart phones.  There's an app for that!

BPQ members are waiting for you!  Here's the link - see you in Issaquah!

Columbia River Gorge Quilters' Guild show - October 23-24! Hood River Armory.

Deep in the Columbia River Gorge, where Lewis and Clark first spotted spectacular Mount Hood, quilters on both sides of the river make spectacular quilts!

This weekend, they have prepared a wonderful quilt show for you at the Hood River Armory in Hood River, Oregon.  This is the place to be!  Fabulous fall weather, fall harvest produce, amazing views, and QUILTS!  All just a quick drive upriver from Portland and Vancouver WA. 

Right on the famous "Fruit Loop", Hood River is a great destination, anyway.  Bring your friends! 

Threadmongers will be there!  Winter is coming...you need thread!  Time to stock up!  When that snow/ice storm/torrential rain comes, and you are inside your cozy quilting space, with lots of fabric and hot coffee/tea/hot chocolate, will you have enough thread???  Don't take a chance - get the threads in colors you need NOW, at one of the last quilt shows of the year.
