Fun Fact!

Fun fact I have discoverd while quilting this quilt. I am using two different types of thred, about 30 to 40 lines of green, then about 4 - 9 lines of yellow. Gutterman 100% cotton will sew about 9 lines before the bobbin needs changing.  Aurifil 40 weight cotton thread will do about 39 lines before the bobbin runs out! There you go!

Well that is interesting! I did a lot of quilting with a small spool of Aurifil and I must admit I did get a lot of bang for my buck. It's an awesome thread to quilt with.

Sounds like the perfect excuse to make the switch to Aurifil! Thanks for the tip!
