I wonder how that thread would work in the long arm....... I love variegated thread for use in quilting. I figured the Maxi Lock would work because aren't sergers fast machines? Nope, it broke too much for my likes. I even bought a more expensive brand that mentioned good for use in long arm machines - nope - too many breaks. I have to say my machine loves some of the "Superior" brand threads (not all) but for what I do, I can't justify the cost of their threads... Okay, enough about me, this is worth checking out and if nothing else, I'll piece with it :-)
Oh now there is absolutely NO DOUBT that it was brought back because of your campaign. Who in their right mind wants to deal with BOB? HAHAHA
Weather? I wish I could postpone going to work because of "weather"! I hope you did have a part in bringing these back. They're beautiful!
Hi, Katie - I don't know if it would work in the long arm or not. The ad in the catalog says - "Multi-colored Essential(TM) Thread spools are great for quilting, embroidery, or even just a straight stitch. 1200 yard spools of 50/3 Double Mercerized extra-long staple cotton. Approx 58" repeat, color change every 19"." I just added that info to my post as an edit update - ;))
Haha - BOB would love to think that she had SOMETHING to do with it - ;))
Hi Katie - they ARE gorgeous, aren't they?? I am SOOOOOOO glad that they brought them back - and like I said at the beginning of the post - I hope they sell TONS - ;))
I would like to think there are actually companies out there that listen to their customers.
Maybe there were others who were asking the same thing---bring it back! I don't think I have gotten my copy of the newest catalog yet. Mail lady has already been here for the day. HMMMM well there is always the website.
I agree Julie - and I think that this company may be one of them - ;))
You're probably right - we couldn't be the only ones who wanted them to bring it back!!
I got my copy of their catalog a week or so ago - it's the March 2014 issue. The cover says - "NEW! Golden Age - NEW! Natural Love II - NEW Silk Batting and Variegated Thread Spools". I didn't even read the blurb on the cover - I just found it on Page 9 as I was thumbing through the catalog.
I just checked the website - it's not available yet. I guess the only way to see the promo is to follow my link or to go their site and do a search for "variegated". Maybe tomorrow - ;))
I took part in your campaign! I am so glad the brought it back! I will ordering some.
THANKS!! - Wouldn't it be great if we ALL ordered some - and they underestimated the "demand" - and "sold out" sooner than they expected?? - ;))
