\"Chroma\"<\/a>
Chroma<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On a whim, I pre-ordered some Chroma FQs from Hawthorne Threads. I wanted to use some of the pieces for the Triple Star<\/a> and I had some time to cut at the end of June.<\/p>\n

They were expected at the end of June, which was perfect timing. Sadly, the fabric didn’t arrive until nearly the end of July.<\/p>\n

Poor Hawthorne Threads. They were beside themselves and incredibly apologetic. Good thing I had plenty to do.<\/p>\n

Some of the colors are great, but I don’t like that mustard yellow or the super icky green. I am an icky green girl, but that is a little too icky for me. the blues are the nicest followed by some of the pinks and lavenders. I already started cutting and the fabric is batik-esque and VERY thin.<\/p>\n

\"Aurifil<\/a>

I also started machine quilting with the 28 weight Aurifil thread. I liked it and decided to use it for the art quilt<\/a>. I bought a few spools in colors I needed from Red Rock Threads<\/a>*. What a great place! I ordered the thread in the evening one day and two days later it was on my dining room table. I didn’t even pay for expedited shipping. Their site isn’t super fancy, but it works well, is easy to understand and they ship fast. I can’t ask for more than that.<\/p>\n
