Giveaway from Aurifil
Our featured sponsor today is Aurifil.
Aurifil thread is "the bomb". Aurifil is a high quality thread that has a long staple so is unlikely to tangle or break and has very low lint . The 50 wt is our go to thread for piecing whether by hand or machine. It would be amazing just based on its quality but the price is very reasonable too! Thanks Aurifil!
Aurifil is offering a 50wt Eat Your Fruits n' Veggies Thread Kit by Pat Sloan to one lucky winner. You can use these threads for hand appliqué, machine appliqué and machine quilting. The box has 12 spools of yummy colors. Each spool is 1,422 yards of pure delight!

Love Aurifil thread, what a fun blog hop.
Sew Sisters, our cat will tell you, you opened pandoras box, each morning she has to wake the youngest son, he will wake up and feed her at the crack of dawn, not Mommy. After my cuppa, I head to Canada Blogathon, in my red pjs. Then I am lost in a world of discovering all the amzing bloggers we have right here on our very own doorstep.
