Who needs a little thread in their stocking?

Wednesday, December 19, 2018
Hi Everyone,

Gütermann thread makes Signiture Cotton Quilting Thread and they asked me to tell you about this pretty little box of thread that is available for a special price, 20% off, for the holidays at Joann stores.

It is twelve 700 yard spools. Signature cotton thread is 40 weight, 100% extra long staple, 3-ply mercerized Egyptian cotton. This gives it strength and softness with low lint.

I am not getting paid to post about it but they did give me a sweet little 6 pack box of the same thread in all the best neutral colors to give away to you.

So if you would like to win this box of thread. Please leave a comment below telling me what your favorite color of thread is and why. I will draw a winner next Thursday from the comments.

I will start... my favorite color is dove grey because it matches everything :)

Hope you are having a lovely Holiday Season.

Love,

  3. My fav color of thread is light gray. It blends in well and doesn't show through when I use it for piecing. For quilting, I love using variegated threads to blend in.

  6. I tend to use an ivory or pearly white for sewing and quilting. It's easy going with many fabric colors and still allows the design to show through. I'd love to try Gutermann thread!

  7. My preference is gray--sometimes dark gray, sometimes medium gray and sometimes light gray. It depends upon whether I'm piecing dark, medium or light colors.

  20. My favorite color thread to use is gray. I like that it blends well with most colors. I actually prefer to sew with a color that is just a little different from the fabric color because it makes ripping out stitches so much easier. Happy Sewing!

  23. I'm with you, I use a light grey for most of my piecing. White comes in second, and black a distant third. Love to try out new-to-me threads and it is a bonus that this brand is available at my local Joanns.

  51. I mostly use neutral threads for quilting as it seems to blend and match everything! Gutermann thread is a great quality and a brand that I live and my sewing machine loves too!

  52. I suppose I'm a non traditionalist. I do not have a favorite color go to thread. As an artist and author who also happens to quilt I like to use my threads for bold contrast and emphasis. I prefer for my thread color to compliment or accent components of the quilt pattern or fabrics used. However, that is not to say I don't have a favorite color. I will always purchase spools of turquoise or aqua thread when available if I need it or not....just to drool over if nothing else. :) Merry Christmas!

  56. I mostly use an ivory for sewing and quilting. But for perfection it should rather match with dominant color of fabric. I love quilting with Gutermann thread!

    ReplyDelete
  57. When I started making quilts I was taught to use a light grey thread because it blends with most colors. So I have used grey ever since because the teacher was right.
