that is so darn cool!
|
I know kids would love that!
|
I love glow in the dark threads & fabrics
Here's one I made http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-11529-1.htm |
I did this for my grand son and he loves it. There is also solar thread, it changes color in the sun
|
Justok - what a neat idea! I went to Joanne's this afternoon and got Glow In The Dark thread ----they only had white and yellow, but the salesperson said they will have more variety closer to Halloween. I bought white and will use it to quilt a Halloween quilt for a grandchild - I might wait to quilt the other one with a different color. It does really glow!!!
|
Love your quilt! Have wanted to try the GID thread. Must do so now.
|
I am making a patriotic quilt with elongated stars. I have been wanting to sew around the stars with the glow in the dark thread. I am so glad to see your glow in the dark kitties. That gives me encouragement. I like all the other creative ideas mentioned here on the board also.
|
what a neat idea! LOVE IT!
|
i got some of that accidently.. just looking for a pink to satin stitch around the hearts on a baby quilt...
so now all the hearts light up in the dark... it was such a cool surprise when i went into the sewing room one night! |
I just saw some of that. Very interesting! I love your quilt!
|
beautiful quilt, what pattern is that? I would love to make it.
|
How cool!

............. I just looked at the QB links and see that the thread works great. I don't have to worry about the fabric. Thanks! |
This sounds like fun! I'm going to find this thread and give it a try.
|
Love the quilt pattern!
|
Sure is pretty!
|
Love it ~ I'm glad I am not the only one who plays with stuff like this ;) have you played with the color-changing threads yet? they are fun, too ~ I am putting a few of those on my niece's quilt just to see how long it takes her to notice LOL ~ out of the sun, they appear white. Sun hits them, they change to green or orange or red or magenta or yellow or blue. I have the whole set, made DD a sweatshirt years ago. white on white. Until she went out onto the playground!!!
|
Beautiful quilt. :thumbup: :D
|
Love the quilt. Beautiful colors.
|
Love the quilt. It's a very striking design.
|
Beautiful quilt, love the pattern and colors....the glow in the dark sounds like fun, must try it, thank you for the information ..
|
Lovely quilt. I'll bet the glow in the dark thread is awesome.
Nice work on a complecated pattern. |
I love your quilt, even when it's not glowing :lol:
|
Wow! What a neat idea. I always do glow in the dark embroidery for sweatshirts and wallhanging for Halloween for my grand kids. Never thought of doing their quilts that way. I have to try it!
Thanks for sharing. |
Hmmmm...I'm remembering the invisible thread practical joke on swimming trucks.
How about the glow in the dark thread with a special (but decent) message? Mr. Studley |
Love the quilt you made
- I just bought that pattern from Keepsake also - but I am doing a beige/espresso/black/cream thing, very modern looking, maybe batiks. Glad to hear it's not too challenging! :) Thanks for glow/dark idea too Sue |
Thanks everyone for the comments. I guess we don't have to be kids to like cool stuff.
|
Beautiful quilt.
|
Beautiful quilt.
|
I just gave my 5 year old grandson a quilt with glow in the dark thread outlines of dinosaurs and his name. He was soooo surprised!! He keeps taking the quilt into the darkest bathroom just to see it glow. My DD says she can hear him in there laughing. LOL
|
I like the pattern, I imagine the glow in the dark thread is cool looking. May have to try that on my son's soon-to-be-started quilt.
|
Beautiful quilt! even in the daylight.
|
Pretty colors.
|
I made a Halloween table runner for a friend and used glow-in-the-dark thread to quilt spider webs on it. I really liked the way it looked.
My daughter made the Happy Hauntings wall hanging & used glow in the dark to quilt around the ghost. |
what a pretty quilt. I love how people on this board try the unconventional and think outside the square
