Tomorrow is my first guild meeting EVER!! They are called the Tarheel Quilters Guild. My friend, B. invited me and I simply could not pass up an afternoon of sewing time. Oh no, no:) I have a few projects besides the chenille top to work on. I will be seam ripping into my Lucky Stars block to get that 1/2" difference in check. I may bring my Dancing Stars top to hand stitch some more.
I also bought some Aurifil colors over at Red Rock Threads in Silver Grey,Ice Blue and Sand for a great price!
I opened up a spool the other day with B. so we could undertake some *necessary* touch testing! Oh my it is soooo soft and worth all those pennies!! Long staple cotton just sounds wonderful doesn't it??!!!!
Now if I only had something to quilt--NOW! hehehehe
See ya'll soon!

Glad you like the thread! I read somewhere that the reason it goes through the machine so smoothly is that the thread comes off from the top of the thread spool. I don't know if it's true, but it seems that way!
Beautiful quilt for your neice!
I hope to one day make a quilt! Love the colors! Life to the full! Melissa
Fun project on your design wall. Looks like the perfect project for a niece. I've read a lot of people raving about the Aurifil threads. Maybe I'll have time this summer to try them. Have fun at your quilt guild outing.
I want to try that chenille blanket tutorial! Pam is in one of my bees. Can't wait to see yours! and I know you'll love going to guild :)
Congratulations on the score! Thread is an important "tool" in the business of sewing and quilting!
Your pinkness made me smile! We have three boys here, so anything that lovely has to be appreciated!
ps.
have fun sewing your little heart out at the guild meeting! how fun!
Hi Sara! I am anxious to see it all finished and hear what you thought of the process. It gets a little easier as you make more of them! Love all the "pinkness".
I like Aurifil thread too, so fine and easy to use. I also like Masterpiece from Superior. Hope the guild meeting was fun!
