    Default Glide thread?

    Where can I buy Glide thread? I have looked (sort of) and haven't found it yet. I had a cone of it and am about to run out. I had gotten it from a friend and she has since passed so don't know where she got it. I thought it might be Superior or Red Rock Threads, but didn't see it. Help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Fil Tec, no longer sells to individuals and there is a $100 min. order. I buy it here thanks to a board member who gave me the info: http://www.quiltscomplete.com/Depart...ead/Glide.aspx

    You can also get it at Bobbin Central. Minimum order is $50.

    They also sell Cairo Quilt, which is a great lower cost alternative that is comparable to Aurifil.

    Bobbin Central only sells wholesale. I called and spoke to customer service. Their policy changed a few months ago. I can order what I need from the link I posted for about the same price I could order from Bobbin Central anyway.
