Happy anniversary Pat!
For years I used what I could afford to buy for thread. After watching your videos a few years ago, while recovering from surgery, I invested in Aurifil thread. I was amazed with the improvement in my stitching and the overall look. Now I piece with a neutral colour and purchase one spool at a time due to my circumstances. It’s a luxury for me but but an essential one to ensure my quilts last for years. Thank you for the giveaways and the free patterns.
I love thread colors because I also do machine embroidery and garment sewing. For quilts I mostly use neutrals. Happy Sewing!
I love using colors especially for appliqué but I usually piece with neutrals.
I use Aurifil neutrals for my piecing and colors to match my applique. It is my “always go to” thread.
Love Auriful neutrals for piecing and quilting and love the colours for appplique
I have never tried aurifil thread. I generally use neutrals to piece the quilts but I love colors as well for my ribbon skirts- matching thread to each Color of ribbon
Thanks, Pat, for all your videos. I recently gave my Oliso iron to a friend, so I need a replacement! I always piece with neutral Aurifil thread and use 40 wt for applique when I want it to show up more. Thanks for everything.
I like a cream or light grey for piecing, for applique I match the tread to the fabric.
love aurifil thread.
I have multiple colours of thread, including the neutrals, Aurifil definitely my favourite thread, just came home from overseas with several colour spools of Aurifil. Would be awesome to win the box if neutrals.
Those beautiful aurifil colors remind me so much of fall !!
I have recently been using Aurifil neutral thread. I love it easy to thread my machine I also like the feel of its silkiness. I would love to win the Aurifil thread box.
You can really tell the difference with Aurifil. I used to use another brand faithfully, but I got a spool on sale and couldn’t believe how happy my machine was using Aurifil! 😉
Thank you for all that you do. I use neutrals most of the time for piecing.
I love thread colors. Mostly for embroidery, but for piecing I’m a gray girl. Light gray or dark gray is what I use for piecing.
I love Aurifil thread. I use it all the time
Thank you for all you do. Olisio irons are great and giveaways are such fun.
I love colors, I keep trying to add more so I have a good variety when sewing appliqués and bindings. I use Aurifil thread all the time.
I LOVE colors! With so many beautiful colors of thread, why limit yourself.
Congratulations on your 10th anniversary! I love colors, but mostly use neutrals to piece my blocks.
I love thread colors for quilting and thread painting and even topstitching, but for piecing I have 3 basics that I use depending on the main fabric colors.
Aurifil #2600 Dove Gray is my go to thread of choice for piecing……..won’t use any other brand.
Happy 10th Anniversary!!
I love colorful thread and LOVE Aurifil but I mostly use neutrals. I satisfy my yearning for the colorful threads by looking at them in my Aurifil Color Card. They are so beautiful!
I started using aurifil thread last October and would love to win this box to help build my collection. Especially if the missing spool was put back in. Heehee!
I haven’t tried Aurifil Threads .. would love to try though!
I have a few colors of threads. Mainly, I use neutrals though!
NEUTRALS MOSTLY
I use neutral colors for most of my sewing and quilting. Occasionally I will use a color if I want the quilting to really show up. Thanks, Pat!
I love thread colors especially when I do applique. Use Aurifil for all my piecing and applique. Love this thread.
I mainly use neutrals, but I have a few darker colors for piecing with a darker background.
I love all the pretty colors.
I piece exclusively with neutral colors. I only use other colors for topstitching.
I almost always use the same light gray Aurifil for piecing, but have thread in all colors of the rainbow – because I also do a lot of home decor sewing and the closest fabric store is 40 miles away!
I love colors but find that I use neutrals the most. Thank you, Pat, for such fun and inspiring content.
I love Aurifil and use primarily neutral colors.
I always use white or light grey BUT, I want to start using more colors.
I use mostly neutral thread for piecing, but really enjoy a variegated thread for quilting.
I have lots of colors, but have started to use more neutrals!
I love colored thread. I use it for thread painting, decorative stitching, machine applique, or satin stitching. I use neutral thread mostly for actual quilting. At your suggestion, I have picked up some Aurifil for machine quilting.
Congratulations on 10 years! Time flies when you are having fun. I love aurifil thread. Those neutrals look like then would be very versatile.
I love thread colors, but use neutrals too. Arifil is my favorite thread
I absolutely love buying lots of Aurifil colors but I sometimes forget to use them when I start new projects, so I am often just using their neutrals, which are also beautiful. Since I go through lots of Aurifil Thread it’s a win win situation. Thanks for another nice give away, Pat and happy 10th anniversary for Quilting Along With Pat Sloan!
Congratulations….wow, 10 years! Thank you for all your dedication. I love color but keep that in my fabrics and sew with mostly neural threads. Thanks for all you do for all of us.
I love thread colors and I love Aurifil Threads! My Janome machine loves Aurifil too!
Coming from a garment-sewing background, of course I have been of the mindset that I have to be matchy-matchy with thread colors. However, after following quilting sites and dipping my toes into the craft, I am starting to change that tendency and am building up my stash of neutral thread colors.
Congrats on 10 years and thank you for all your hard work putting together these wonderful shows for us!!!
I use this thread for everything. Bobins, piecing, EPP, and appliqué such a great quality product.
I would love to win some Neutral Aurfil Threads. That would be amazing.
I love to use different thread colors. I mainly use them for my applique quilts.
Colours are very nice to match to the quilt top and back while quilting the quilt. I never have enough neutral threads so would love to win this package. I do love Aurifil thread.
