Very pleased with Connecting Thread Order
 
1 Attachment(s)
I needed a few spools of thread. $120.00 later, this is what I received today.

37 spools of thread (40%off), a sweet grass stack and matching fabric for the border, and
15 yards of their Mirage fabrics that are on sale for $2.96 a yard (I really like these and needed blenders).
Of course, shipping was fast and free.

WOW !! That quite the order and a bargain for all that you got for your $$$.

SouthPStitches 03-10-2012 03:17 PM

How could you go wrong! Everything about Connecting Threads is outstanding. Love 1,000 Bolts too.

Raggiemom 03-10-2012 03:26 PM

That's a great deal, pretty impressive shopping.

QuiltnNan 03-10-2012 03:35 PM

Wow! I posted earlier today wondering about their thread....now I need to place an order.

doodledo 03-10-2012 04:51 PM

Crazy question. But do you use those spools just like you do a reg spool of thread?

Briarberry 03-10-2012 05:11 PM

Wow, that's a lot of stuff for the $. I just ordered from Connecting Threads for the first time and got the order yesterday. I was very pleased with the fabric and thread. I will definitely be ordering from them again. I also like the Mirage fabric.

I want to order some Mirage fabric too, but when I went to the site, most of the Mirage fabric is $4.97. Am I in the right spot?

BigDog 03-10-2012 07:53 PM

Looks like only 5 or 6 are the lower price. I wish they were all on sale. I would load up something fierce.

hperttula123 03-10-2012 07:56 PM

yea!!! Looks like a great shopping experience. I love all the colors of thread.

BigDog 03-10-2012 07:58 PM

OH WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I clicked the "March Madness" banner, all the Mirage fabrics came up on sale.

bunniequilter 03-11-2012 03:56 AM

I am really drooling over that haul! Love the colours and the thread....I have a thread fetish!

Click on the sale banner on the left side of the home page. That should give you all of them at the sale price. I checked yesterday. I would like to get a few more colors before the sale ends.

I love CT. They are awesome and generous with their yardage.

Tink's Mom 03-11-2012 06:16 AM

mcdaniel023 03-11-2012 06:18 AM

I made a mistake....$2.48 a yard......even better!

Barbshobbies 03-11-2012 07:46 AM

RUSewing 03-11-2012 07:58 AM

CT is a great place - only wish I had more $$. Wish we didn't have taxes - lolol

kathdavis 03-11-2012 08:21 AM

Nice work! I love the price of Connecting Threads thread, but I recently found out that my sewing machine does not like its thread :( I keep having tension problems and the repair guy said it is the thread. My machine is thread sensitive. Drats!

clsurz 03-11-2012 08:28 AM

I haven't bought there fabrics yet but I do love to buy the threads as you have shown here along with books when they are on sale.

Really! Many of us in my area buy that thread and have never heard anyone having problems with it. Just as there are different colors threads we all have different type machines.

What brand/model sewing machine are you using?

psthreads 03-11-2012 05:00 PM

I really like Connecting Thread.

cathyvv 03-11-2012 05:10 PM

Good for you. I saw the mirage and took a day to think about buying them - and they were gone! She who hesitates is too darn late to get the good buy.

cathyvv 03-11-2012 05:12 PM

Not all mirage was included in the sale. They must have sold out!

Kuusistoquilter 03-11-2012 06:10 PM

I love connecting threads thread. I love that the spools last and last. I hate to run out of thread after sewing and filling a few bobbins. great place to shop.

wraez 03-11-2012 06:20 PM

That looks like quite a treasure chest of goodies! I also love CT and have to refrain from going to their website, LOL.

leevenora 03-11-2012 07:02 PM

I am going to have to go to connecting threads, and check it out.

dixie_fried 03-11-2012 07:50 PM

I have ordered from them on several occasions. Their fabric is wonderful and you can't beat their prices.
Ordering a thread collection since it's on sale.

Helena 03-12-2012 02:51 AM

I too am very satisfied with ordering from Connecting Threads. My only problem is that I never buy enough fabric initially and then when I try to order more, their stock is depleted. I love your choice of colors. Should make a fabulous quilt. Will you post pictures?

jeanneb52 03-12-2012 02:56 AM

OHHHHH I am green with envy. I love CT Love the fabrics, the thread, the prices LOVE the whole site. Have fun
