"AURIfil THREAD SAVES CHRISTMAS!"

Hey quilters....hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and is enjoying the last day of 2019. This year has flown by for me. Had great times and of course some "issues" that I'm dealing with now. I always try to turn a negative into a positive. It's not always easy but in this case being down in my back has "forced" me to design differently. I myself....am now having to do "small sewing/quilting" projects due to my back. If you've noticed, I recently pulled a "Christmas quilt-a-long"....I received several emails stating it was too difficult. Well....for once I listened :-)….plus had plenty of down time to work on my designs. So needless to say....2020 will be full of fun....fast & "less complicated" projects but still fabulous! I'm actually excited myself because "small projects' make me feel like I'm getting a lot accomplished. What a great way to start off the New Year!
Well....as you all know I'm obsessed with AURIfil thread. The quality is amazing and you have so many hues to choose from. Our Christmas "mishap" is a perfect example! My daughter....removing the tag from her Christmas throw....had the biggest look of disappointment that I've seen in a long time. The tag stuck so bad into the fabric that it actually "ripped" a long tear in the throw. Oh my gosh...I don't care how old your child is the look of disappointment is horrible. She says..."mom can you do something?".....Because AURIfil thread is so "amazing"...I go to my thread holder and AURIfil 50 weight #1126 was a perfect match! Oh my gosh....we got so excited! I'm addicted to AURIfil 50 weight thread...it's so versatile for any sewing or quilting project. So....I hand sewed the seam with the thread to prevent any other tearing of the fabric.....Her "Christmas throw" is perfect in my mind 'cause sometimes a little "mishap" creates some fun Christmas memories. Below is a pic of the throw & I'm not bragging but it looks pretty good :-)...the huge tear was below rear tire.
 So thank you AURIfil thread for creating such an "Amazing thread!"
Looking forward to some fun...fast & fabulous projects 2gether!

Blessed Quilting from My Home to Yours,
Cat
