While packing for my quilting retreat, I noticed i didn't have any good white thread left, so I ran to my LQS. I could not believe that the Aurifil Thread had gone up to $12.00 a spool. I know I didn't pay that much a few months ago when I purchased some other colors there. I bought my one spool, but then just purchased three spools of Aurifil for under $29.00 with free shipping at
