My LQS just moved into bigger digs, and it's a pretty good store for the size of the town. I certainly found a lot of pretty fabric. BUT when I asked where the hand quilting thread was, they looked at me like I had two heads and pointed to a display of big cones in about 12 colors. No Gutterman, no Mettler. "We don't carry Gutterman hand quilting thread." Obviously, in their opinion, anyone who is a real quilter machine quilts.



I can't believe I'm the ONLY one in town who still quilts by hand!



Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I wonder what the percentage of quilters are hand quilters? Anyone know?

A comment about the Common Threads folks in Waxahachie. I had a problem with something I ordered from them online. They were so nice and helpful about it. They gave me a full refund, including shipping. They were really nice about it and I didn't expect them to credit me for the shipping. I would highly recommend them if you like historical kind of quilting fabrics. Good folks.

Yes... AND tie AS WELL! :D

Now, I wonder what category THAT would be entered for in a quilt show?
