I purchase mine from Quiltworks in Mnpls. MN
Or from United Notions.
You will need a Business ID number for both.

Signature Cotton, Perma Core, YLI, King Tut... to many to name.

I use Superior and other threads but I get mine from Cranberry Quiltworks as they deliver to cities in the SW states without tax. I just have to go pick it up. So I tend to buy more than i immediately need.

A LQS does have what I need if I'm in a pinch.
