Hi,

I don't hand quilt but for piecing I prefer cotton thread. I like 50 wt. for piecing, Aurifil is my favorite but it's pretty pricey.

I like to buy my piecing thread in larger spools, I think the Aurifil is 1300 meters. I mostly use cream, grey, black and tan. I don't think I'd be interested in kits as there's often colors in them that I wouldn't use.

For machine quilting I use a lot variegated thread which isn't always easy to find on Canadian websites, or if it is the price is very high. I've tried two Superior Threads products, those being King Tut and Lava and love them both.

I'm glad to see you carrying Warm products. That is my favorite batting and not always easy to get in Canada unless one wants to pay Fabricland's ridiculous prices. I prefer to buy it by the meter/yard as opposed to quilt sizes.

My preferred payment method would be Paypal and
I would be more than willing to wait for an order if it meant lower cost to me.

Good luck with your website/store!
