There's lots of excitement here this morning, as orders have started to arrive for Fibre Arts Festival. W hat fun to open the boxes!
Included is a new shipment of my book, Quilting Beauties. I love the line, "Live, breathe, quilt", that AQS has on the box. Words to live by :)
Polly was particularly taken with the Aurifil box.
The thread cones have turned out to be a popular item, both with stand-up and sit-down quilters. These large spools hold 6,452 yards (5900 m) of 50 weight and offer great saving if you use a lot of thread. They are in stock now in basic colours.
There is also a "Basics" collection of 12, 50 weight 1300 m spools in a reusable case.
The 12 weight cotton has been replenished and several new colours added, including light blue and a really pretty rose. Polly and I will be playing with thread all day!
Perhaps an Italian cat helped pack it...?
Inside were lots of goodies, including a few new items - cases, and thread collections.
Score! Good luck with your sales during the fest! The cones really are a great deal! XO
ReplyDeleteSuper size cones, and none better than a feline check test for all to be in order. Love those boxes for the reels, I will see if we have them down here in NZ.
ReplyDeleteMy machine and I both like Aurifil thread, though it means buying online......sadly, it's not stocked locally.
ReplyDeleteI did see volunteer sewing this week and the thread was supplied. My machine was unimpressed with the brand supplied, and told me about it. I rethreaded today with Airfoil, and it was much happier.
ReplyDeleteMy friend Lee got a cone of aurafil at quilt Canada. I'm jealous. I plan to be at the Festival for a day, so watch for me.. I may have to get one when I come by your table..
