Joy oh day, I love the fabrics in the first photo, those are my kind of fabrics.
But I must say that the Connecting Threads are my favorite by far..... 1200yds to a spool of 100% Egyptian Long Staple Cotton, no lint, no fuzz no knots.... I could do a commercial for them! Every quilt board I go to I sing the praises of Connecting Threads Essential threads.... and when you buy the sets they run under $16 for 10 spools. Geesh, other quality threads run $8 a spool!
You did great!
