One of my favorite things about being a designer is getting to be a spokesperson or ambassador for many different companies in the quilting industry. I love telling folks about things that I use in my sewing room every day. Probably one of the most important supplies I use in *all* of my quilts is my collection of Aurifil threads.

I curated my favorite grouping of colors, neutrals, and variegated threads I use for both piecing AND quilting. They are all size 50 weight, 100% premium long staple cotton and they are an absolute dream to work with. The first 2 boxes – Colors and Neutrals were first introduced back in 2016 and due to the overwhelming popularity, I was able to curate the Variegated group a couple years later in 2018

Because these collections have sold so well for so many years (and my picture on the original boxes was getting a little out of date) we decided to refresh the labels so that they all had a consistent look.

I’m actually a minimalist when it comes to tools and supplies around the studio so I love that these threads are all constructed exactly the same. They are long staple cotton fibers with over 1400 yards of thread on each spool. In fact, I can usually quilt an entire throw sized quilt with just one spool – and that includes the top *and* bobbin threads!

When I first began quilting I got so confused with all the different types of threads that were out there, not to mention all the different sizes. I was so happy when I could find just ONE thread that could do everything I love to do. The bonus thing about working with cotton threads is that they make your quilts soft and supple since they are a natural fiber. And any leftover bobbins that I use for machine quilting can be used up when piecing my next quilt!

I’be been working with these threads exclusively since they came out and have been very pleased with the results. If you haven’t tried them yet, you are in for a treat!
