I love Superior Threads King Tut, yummy stuff!
|
I got mine at Joann with coupons. I'm using Sulky rayon.

Poly or rayon - depending on what catches my eye....
I don't believe I've ever seen a cotton varigated....so if anyone has, please post! I've gotten the majority of my varigated @ Joanns...on sale or with coupon. Have to watch those pennies! |

Really depends on what background you're quilting. I used a beautiful variegated in a red/white/blue on a quilt that had kona cream and batik blocks....and it really made the quilt pop. I'm a piecer and appliquer - no mid arm/long arm & frame set up yet - but most of the quilters I know believe the quilting should enhance - not overpower the quilt itself. Makes sense to me! |
