    Fun, fun, fun. I have fallen in love with Aurifil and it is my favorite choice. I'm very excited about their new 80wt thread and wanting to try it for piecing, free-motion quilting, as well as machine embroidery.

    I use my happy colors of my Lori Holt Aurifil Thread box for appliqueing. Otherwise I use Gutermann thread in white or cream for all other sewing.

    Aurifil is my top choice for all piecing and sewing. I'd love to have a chance at the box. but I don't do Facebook, and I don't have a smartphone. I do well to get Flickr and my blog done, LOL!!

    Aurifil is my choice of thread. I love how they put together sets of threads to match fabric colletions. Fantastic!

    I too like Lori Holt's collection. I hadn't heard of the 80 wt thread.

    I use Aurifil thread for all of my quilting projects. I usually can sew with off white/cream or gray for most projects.

    I used to use Gutterman. Then I discovered Aurifil. WOW!! Not that I don't still use Gutterman ever, but there is a huge difference using the Aurifil. So beige and grey are my most common for piecing.

    I love Aurifil but sometimes have to settle for Guttermann at the big box store.

    I recently received a couple spools of Alex Anderson's Thread Master Piece by Superior. It's a low lint producer and tolerates heat very well. LOVE IT!

    I really like using the Aurifil thread in gray or cream for all my piecing projects. I do no quilting so have no opinion there. Thanks for the chance to win some beautiful thread! Helen hrglover(at)hotmail(dot)com

    I absolutely love using Aurifil Thread for my all my projects, it makes everything sew much easier. With a huge range of colours and weights and with practically no lint all seams disappear but quilting pops just like a dream. Can't wait to start using the new 80wt Aurifil and what I can create up with it ☺️ #Thankfulforthread

    My one and only Aurifil verigated brown thread (50 wgt). It goes good with cream, brown n caramel color fabric. I'm new to Aurifil so more colors will get in my thread rack.

    I (and my sewing machine) love Aurifil 50 wt. It's great for both machine sewing and hand applique. Thanks for the fun!

    Aurifil is wonderful thread. I most often use 40-50 weight and most often white, cream or light grey, but do love the vast color options to pick from. Wonderful giveaway!
