I love Connecting Threads!! With each order I place, I buy a thread set. In March I ordered 2 sets and they sent the same sets instead of 2 different sets. I called and they said mine other was on backorder and they would send it as soon as it came in, and they let me keep the other set. I got my new set 2 weeks later. Love the thread and the fabric!

Before they closed the doors in Vancouver Wa. , my daughters and I took lessons, did the five dollar block of the month, bought lots of fabric, took hand quilting lessons from Debbie Beeves and it went on.
We were all so disappointed when they closed the warehouse and moved it. Then they closed the store and went on line only....phftttttt. A great loss to the quilters in that area. They had the best ladies working there, I miss them. It isn't the same with a catalog and on line |
I should add, they still have great service, decent prices and service...I'm just missing the "old days".
|
It is also nice that Connected Threads is also made in America. I like the fabric too.
|
How do I find out about Connecting Threads? I'm a newbie and never heard of them.
|
Use the link and spend some time there just looking around. Great fabric, great thread and great prices. http://www.connectingthreads.com/Quilting.cfm
|
Use it for a quilt or a backing. With 8 yds, you have enough to work with so many things unless you just hate the fabric. Get other fabric that will go with the green if it can be used for the focus fabric

This is a company on the internet, if you just type in Connecting Threads and they have cheap kits, fabric is about 5.98 a yard, sometimes cheaper, and lots of notions and books at a discount.
|
Their thread is WONDERFUL & you can't beat the price. I use it for piecing & quilting. Love it!
|
Wow! If you've not checked out the new pricing and fabric on the Connecting Threads website, take a look! I love new prices, the solids and BATIKS! YEAH!
|

forgot to add, there are about 4 of us that wait and order at the same time, to get the free shipping too! |
Just went onto connectionthreads.com and found out that they have lowered their prices!!!!! The solids are now $3.96 a yard, printed fabric is $4.96 a yard, and batiks are $5.96 a yard. You can't beat those prices very often!!!!

I ordered from Connecting Threads for the first time last week. Of course I won't see until we get home. We are still on the road and won't be home until next month. I hear great things about them. I'm anxious to get home and see everything. Orderd a pattern, some books and some charm packs (they were on sale so got 2 of each).. :lol:

Connecting threads Rocks...how nice of them .....:)
|
Notice the price of the thread sets went up?
|
This is so good to hear. I just got my first catalogue from connecting threads and really wasn't sure about them. After what you said, I wouldn't hesitate to oder the couple of things I wanted. Thanks

I love Connecting Threads, all my orders have been correct.
At the bottom of page 1, there is an ad for $3.96 a yard for 100% cotton fabric. |
Use it for a quilt back!
|
my experience has been the same, nothing but friendliness and good customer service
|
"Pay it Forward" - Keep half and give the other half to someone else.
|
They are the best for CS I have found although Fabric Depot is also a good one..............
|
Connecting Threads is a wonderful place to shop. I'm so glad to hear of your good experience with them.

watch for their 1/2 pricce sale.I bought loads for backings..they were all $2.96 a yard.and the fabric was great...all USA made.
Now that's what we like to read....... |
If nobody has suggested it...check out Thimbleberries quilt patterns.
Even if you are not a plaid lover, a little bit adds some pizazz to a nice, comfy-cozy country quilt! Trade some of it to a plaid lover. :D |
Some day you will have a use for the green fabric So just put it into your stash.
|
That is really a nice surprise! Connecting Threads are great to work with though. I have bought alot from them & I've always been pleased!
|
Make a quilt and use the 8 yards for a backing...
