Aurifil Thread Labs

 

Introducing Thread Labs, Aurifil’s 2023 subscription series curated in celebration of Aurifil’s 40th Anniversary. Thread Labs is a six part series that tells the story of Aurifil– from the history and unique production process to an in-depth education on their revered threads. It was developed as a no-fuss program in reaction to the increased consumer demand for education. From July through December, subscribers will gain the necessary tools to more confidently create with a variety of thread weights and techniques. You will finish the year inspired, armed with new skills and a wealth of knowledge. Topics covered will be Thread Fundamentals, Big Stitch Quilting, Foundation Paper Piecing, Machine Quilting, Machine Appliqué, Cross Stitch, Needle Turn Appliqué, and Embroidery.  The threads included will be the full range of weights and fibre content available from Aurifil.

This monthly education subscription program runs from July to December 2023.  If you were a member of the Colour Builder program, it will operate in a similar manner. Over the course of the six months, you will receive and learn how to use all Aurifil thread weights and will also learn some techniques from Aurifil designers. Each box will include a thread assortment and instructions including a QR code which can be scanned to gain access to the educational materials and projects. Subscription cost is $125.00/month, billed monthly when the threads are ready to ship. 100% of the cost is for product included in the box; the education portion of the box is complimentary and can only be accessed by purchasing the boxes.  Your enrollment in the program must be confirmed by May 10, 2023, and you will receive your first box in July. Please email to sign up.

As many of you know, I am not just a retailer for Aurifil, I am also a dedicated user, and have years of personal experience with all of these threads.  I will be working through the program with you, and am always available to answer any questions you may have, via phone or email.

We are happy to ship across Canada, however there will be a small charge for shipping.  The amount will be determined shortly when I receive the weight and dimensions of the boxes, but just know that it will be a subsidized rate, and as fair as it can be for both of us. As always, you can add any extra threads to each order with no additional shipping cost– it will be a flat rate regardless of what is shipped.

Deadline for registration is May 10/23 and orders need to be in then, so if you are interested, kindly let me know before then so you don’t miss out. I am really looking forward to learning more tips and techniques to take my thread journey to new heights!  Email me  sewkaren at eastlink.ca
