I made my son a halloween quilt and as promised I'm hand quilting each one of my monters quilts my hand. I really wanted to use a varigated thread but can't find any anywhere. I saw some a few years ago....anyone know where I can locate any???Here's a pic of the top Thanks in advance

ps: I always refer to the darlings as monsters! There are good monsters out there!!

I found a variegated orange at JoAnn - it was a 100% cotton by Guitterman (sp?).....

I don't know if you in Germany now.......but if you can't find any thread..........while doing my CQ witches had my avatar, I laid some kona black fabric on my patio. I sprayed with bleach.......thinking I would get some white/gray areas. To my surprise I got orange areas. So I was wondering what would happen if you tried bleaching some black thread.........just a thought.........calla

I would not bleach it...you would have to use anti chlor to stop the bleaching process and the threads would need to be washed, etc..

superior and connecting threads offer many variegated threads!
