Things I Love Thursdays
It's all about thread baby! : ) I love thread. I put in an order to Calgary head office, and had my husband pick it up for me while he was there on business. Look what he brought home!
Ooh there's so much! Earlier this year I got on board as a "Threaducator" for Wonderfil, a Canadian thread company. What does that mean? It means I get sweet deals when I stock up on thread for use when teaching embroidery, threadpainting, and creative sewing classes. I'm currently putting together some kits for a new hand stitching class I'm running in Winnipeg. It's will include silk ribbon, 12 weight thread, and some floss as well. Some of the rayons you see are for machine work classes I'll do in the fall. Some of the variegated cottons will get used for all classes including postcards most likely. As soon as the info is posted on the Winnipeg class, I'll let you know! Stay tuned...

Thread was always just a notion you needed for sewing ... until I discovered thread painting. I'm drooling over all your wonderful new threads! How delightful.
beautiful threads, Monika! I can see why you're excited!
Wow, that's some order! It would make me drool!
Oh, so yummy and delicious. I'm so jealous. Thread acquisition is a wonderfil thing!
You need to keep coming east. I' m north of T.O. And would love to do a class with you.
