    Default Aurifil thread in Lancaster, PA area?

    I am going to be in Lancaster, PA on Saturday. Does anyone know of any shops that sell Aurifil thread? I'm hoping to find a shop that has all of the weights but I would be happy to find any of the weights but a full range of colors.

    Thanks!

    If you don't find a store that carries them, Hawthorne Threads stocks all the weights in all the colors, reasonable prices and their shipping charges are minimal.

    Burkholder's in Denver, PA carries some Aurifil thread but I'm not sure about all of the weights.

    Although Burkholder's is a bit out of the way, it is a wonderful fabric store with lots of choices.....my favorite!!

    Hawhtorne Threads are great. I've purchased from them a few times.

    Hinkletown sewing machine has a pretty decent amount of aurifil. Good prices, too. It's located on the owner's farm. They have a very large selection of Isacord, too. I live in the area and I think they have the biggest selection that I know of. Here's their info: Hinkletown Sewing Machine Shop, 232 Wanner Rd., Ephrata, PA 17522. 717-354-0204.

    Also, Green Fairy Quilts (online) is having a sale on aurifil thread.

    Only made it to two shops yesterday and neither had aurifil thread. The upside of that was i did get about 8 yards of fabric, mostly batiks, for only $77! Now to wash it all and start slicing and dicing so i have a prayers chance of getting this quilt done on time!

    Sorry i wasn't more help.
