Looks like you will never have to worry about buying thread again! Good deal!

I would have done the same thing, except I would have bought it all on the same day!

Good Girl! I Love Thread and Buttons. I would have done the same thing.

Finally I went in and bought the remaining Gutterman thread. This basket is 16" X 24" and better than half full. I spent $100 total for $1000 worth of thread! Very Lucky Girl! Enjoy! |
Wow.......Guttermann and Metrosene are the threads I use.....I'd have wiped the display clean. Congratulations!
|
Looks like your very own "pot o' gold." Glad you pirated a great bargain matey!
|
Wow, that is a wonderful deal. :)

How great is that to be able to take advantage of this sale! You go girl!!
|
Wow, good for you. You will never have to buy thread again! :-D
|
I also have a basket for my embroidery thread. Now make a nice cover to throw over it to keep the light out and it will be good for many years. I was not able to get mine at a price comparable to yours. You did good.
|
Pretty thread colors. You should take this picture and frame it for your sewing room!!
|
Great colors. Adorable cat.
|
Pretty thread stash! Great deal too!
|
Great deal! Love your cat too! It seems very serious about guarding your thread.
|
Hmmmmm, I need that mauvy-rose thread...I'll be right over :lol: What an awesome buy - you won't be needing to buy thread any time soon. You totally scored :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
A little OCD? LOL
|
LoriAnn, I have a thread fetish....am having sensory overload looking at your stash. You did really good.
|
I love thread! Your buy is amazing! I would rather find a thread sale then a fabric sale any day.
|
Good for you. :thumbup:
|
What an awesome stash, lucky girl that you hit that 90% discount. I always look for bargains, but I've never been that lucky. WOW.
|
Beautiful collection!!! And better than candy. Isn't it fun to paw around in to find the perfect color for your immediate needs.
|
OMG you did great. I'm jealous. LOL

Wow! Yeah, I probably wouldn't have been able to pass that up, as well....

Lucky you, happy sewing. i did that once here, but they didn't have that much available by the time I saw it. But at those prices you can't afford to leave it in the store.
|
I think you have more than a life-time supply of thread!
|
Wow what a great buy!
|
Wow! Good for you.
