Connecting Threads is hard. I just ordered and had a very hard time, I really wanted everything I saw. They have such a nice selection and colors are great. Don't know what to tell you except to have fun. :lol: :thumbup:

Your DH is feeling pretty cocky and proud of himself. I would purchase clearance fabric and not use the GC. I would hold on to it for that something I've always wanted, but could not justify. Afterall, it was a gift to you.

I also got a Connecting Threads gift certificate for Christmas and I am waiting for their thread to go on sale. I seem to remember a big thread sale last year and I got some thread then. I like it so much that I want more, but I want to wait for it to go on sale and to get the most "bang for my buck!"

I'm the same way, I got a gift certificate for a LQS and still have not been there to spend it. Waiting for something special and/or a sale. I get her newsletters so I will know when the time is right. I have done the same thing with Joann gift certificates, don't want to waste a wonderful gift on just anything, it has to be special or something I really want.
