Threadmongers anniversary - 21 years!

July 1, is the 21st anniversary of Threadmongers! I like to remind her, every year, that Alene Kempton Gragg was my very first customer in 2005.

THANKS to all my customers through the years for your patronage and especially your friendship. It is still fun to be the Threadmonger at quilt shows and see all the pretty, creative things that you make. Quilting is more of a lifestyle than a hobby...Do some quilting today to celebrate!

A quilter's Christmas wish...

Your quilting friends want THREAD for Christmas. 

You know they do.

Because you want it, too.

Sunbonnet Sue Quilt Club 30th Annual Quilt Show July 15-17, 2016!

Those sunshiny Sunbonnet Sues are having their annual FABULOUS show, and they're having it for the 30th time!  All during Sequim's Lavender Festival!  Best festival in July, on the breezy and sunny Olympic Peninsula!

Threadmongers will be there!  This is a favorite show, for sure, as those Sunbonnet Sues are gracious hosts and have fun planned all weekend long.  I think they have the benchmark bed turning in the Pacific Northwest.  You'll want to see it more than once!

So take that mini-vacation you have been talking about and come to Sequim July 15-17 to enjoy the lavender and the QUILTS! 

Stop by to see the Threadmonger at this show!  You need thread!!

Clark County Quilters - a tradition of creativity!

Let the Clark County Quilters take you on A Journey Through Time this weekend with their annual fabulous quilt show!

Some of the most creative, innovative, and enthusiastic quilters in the Pacific Northwest belong to this BIG guild and they are ready to show what they have been doing since last April.

Come on out to the Vancouver Church of Christ - a great venue with great parking - April 9-10-11.

Christmas and quilting - happiest of both to you!

A blessed Christmas and the happiest of holiday seasons to all of you.  Be safe, be well, and be happy. 

Let's get started on 2015 quilting!  Do you have a list of projects?  I keep mine in Excel.  Compulsive...

No matter what quilting projects you choose, you'll need thread.  The Threadmonger is here for you!

A quilting pause in the Threadmonger's quilt show year!

After the lovely Crystal Quilters' show this past weekend, the Threadmonger is ready for some down time!  Well, QUILTING TIME!  My next show is with the Block Party Quilters of Issaquah, November 7-8-9; more on that later!  In the meantime, I'll have a chance to use some of these great THREADS in my own quilting adventure!  If you need anything, I think you know where to find me!  If not, just leave a comment here and I'll get back to you.

The photo above is from Enumclaw on October 9th.  A beautiful day to contemplate the Crystal Quilters' sign with Mount Rainier gleaming in the background. 

Thanks to all of the enthusiastic quilters I have been talking to over the past few weeks at many quilt shows.  I am so inspired by you!

Crystal Quilters of Enumclaw quilt show October 10-11!

Nestled in the foothills, there's lots of quilting going on!  Enumclaw's Crystal Quilters can hardly wait to show your their best work at the Enumclaw Expo Center this weekend! 

Fall is in the air, which means winter is close behind...and you'll need THREAD!  I know you do.  Right now, get going on a list of colors and fibers you'll need to complete those UFOs and those new ideas roaming around in your head. 

Once winter arrives, you'll be ready to hunker down and QUILT!
