Where do you buy thread online?
 
I need a variegated thread and can't find any locally. I can make a trip to a city or buy online so I thought I'd look online first.

I heard of Red Rock Threads on this forum, and just recently tried them and was very pleased with the service. If I remember right, shipping was $5 or under no matter how much you ordered.

I buy thread on-line from Connecting Threads and Thread Art.com. I buy cotton quilting thread on Connecting Threads and they do carry variegated thread. I buy my polyester embroidery thread from Thread Art.com. I haven't had any problems with either of these on line sellers or the thread.

I but Gutermann natural cotton thread in the 3.281 yard cones. The best place I find online for them is www.quilting-warehouse.com.

I have most of their Colour Cards (real thread) and order whenever there's a sale. I buy cones.

I love their thread: usually Masterpiece or Rainbows or King Tut on top and Bottom Line in the bobbin.

I also have a rainbow of colours from CC: I use Bottom Line in the bobbin with the CC spool/cone on top.

I use to buy my Mettler thread from JAF online but last Thanksgiving, they had so few colors it looks like they are discontinuing selling this thread.

I buy my Essentials piecing thread from Connecting Threads, some embroidery thread from either Thread Art or Superior Thread which are both great companies to do business with. I like fast service, quality for the money & getting what I've ordered with each order!

http://www.threadbearfabrics.com/mod...ng+tut&x=0&y=0 I love Fabric.com but they don't rush shipments out. I have gotten some very nice thread from Amazon and they ship quick. Last week I was looking for some variegate thread and knew what I wanted. King Tut I googled and I found a great place. Their price was good. Shipping was only $2 and I got the package in 2 days!! I was very pleased!!!
I will be buying from them again

I buy Aurifil from Hawthorne Threads. They have low shipping, are speedy, their prices are competitive and they stock all the colors in all the weights. I buy Superior Thread brands from their website, and Presencia from theirs.

I buy regular thread from Connecting Threads. For the longarm, I use King Tut, and I get that at Red Rock Threads or Quiltin4Fun.com

MartiToo 03-06-2015 06:57 PM

Thanks everyone. I'll try some of these.

Check out Superior Thread.

needlefruit 03-07-2015 04:06 AM

www.sewthankful.com is my pick...
 
I love King Tut varigated threads, and for several years I have ordered from sewthankful. They are a Mom and Pop shop in New Mexico with very personal service; they carry the full line of Superior Threads at very competitive prices, and their shipping is free on orders over $50. Since I'm ordering from outside NM, there is no sales tax either!

For years I dealt with Atlantic Threads. They were sold to Wawak
wawak.com
I have mostly bought threads that I do not use for quilting since I like Mettler silk finish cotton but I buy
a great deal of other products including threads from them. They are an excellent place to deal with.

Connecting Thread, Superior Thread and Waywak...My three to go places for thread and other supplies.

wendiq 03-07-2015 07:38 AM

I have used the thread from CT also. It is a bit lintier than some, but if you are diligent about cleaning the bobbin area after you use it, can't beat the price.......

pocoellie 03-07-2015 07:59 AM

I buy my cotton quilting thread(piecing) at Connecting Threads, although it's a little linty, you can't beat the price, I just clean out my bobbin area whenever I finish the bobbin. For FMQ, I use http://www.metroemb.com/store/, I get the 5000 meter spools, for a fabulous price, beautiful colors and great customer service.

I primarily buy my thread from Connecting Threads. Have had the best experience with their thread and I have just about every color. Also have used superior thread and they are great also.

Threadart.com in a word, I use them a lot as even being in the UK wiht the postage it is still only a 1/3rd of the price here and their variegated thread is smashing.

I buy from Kingsmen Quilting Supply. Great prices, fast shipping.
