This afternoon I FMQ'd around the outside border of a charity quilt. This is all that is left of the spool of thread. Tad bit hard to see as it is light gray thread on a bright yellow spool. Just a few wraps left. Feeling blessed!

Wow, just enough left to do a few hand sewing items if they aren't very big. Truly blessed.

​Whew, that was close!

GREAT planning!!!

Well, that's certainly using up all the thread on that spool!

Today is your day!!!! I would go buy a lottery ticket.

Whoa! I bet you were watching that thread like a hawk. I once got down to 16 inches left on the spool after putting I the last of the quilting. But last night I ran out before the very last digit in the label I was making to finish it. Looks funny ...not 2016, just 201!

ManiacQuilter2 06-30-2016 02:25 AM

That has never happened to me. I always seem to run out! :(

tessagin 06-30-2016 02:30 AM

Ditto. I have a box for thread like this.

Yup, I used the rest of the thread to start hand sewing the binding down. Good to the last fiber!

A happy event!

I feel blessed when I finish quilting and find my bobbin thread just ran out at the tail. Has happened a couple times.

WOW! That was close. You better go buy a lottery ticket!!

Sandra in Minnesota 06-30-2016 04:27 PM

Don't you just giggle when that happens!!

God's timing is perfect!

Bren 07-01-2016 05:29 AM

Don't you just love it when things work out so well?!!!

mizmac00 07-01-2016 05:40 AM

It's like a "perfect pump" at the fuel pump!!!!

soccertxi 07-01-2016 05:49 AM

there is just something SO satisfying about an empty spool of thread! It makes my day...even if I ran out in the middle of a seam!

Yooper32 07-01-2016 06:36 AM

All I can say is, "lucky you".

momsbusy 07-01-2016 07:30 AM
