Or, Nancy, if you can find your way out here to visit with me, Fil-Tec is about an hour from my house (headquarters/factory)... :P :evil: :woohoo:

I'm slowly collecting all of the colors, too. I put a check mark on the thread chart next to each color I have to keep track. When they add colors, I usually get them right away since they usually put them on sale and then I write the numbers on my chart. It's easier only having one home!

Hmmmm. Maybe I should work some more on my collection when I get my next paycheck.....

I do have an extra Glide one with my thread at my country home. But the rest of them were at my city home and had the list of the ones I ordered so I would know which ones I don't have yet. I'm gradually trying to get a spool of all of the colors. The last time I remember using them was when I chose colors for my Kaleidoscope quilt. The table I kept them on has been replaced with file cabinets. I thought I put them in a box to carry to my country home but am not sure what I did with the box. I guess I could write down all of the colors I have and look on line to see what I'm missing and order some new charts so I will have them at both places.

Thanks, everyone!

Annis, I keep my thread charts in the same drawers with my threads. That's the only way I can keep track of them. And if I ever don't put them away, I'm in trouble!

Beautiful quilting, Nancy. My favorite thread too. I need to order some for my next quilt, but seem to have misplaced my thread charts. Which house, which room, which box??? Surely they have to be around here somewhere but I can't think of where I haven't looked. I spent all day custom quilting a bed runner. It probably took half the day to decide on a pattern. Too late to take a picture. It still needs all of the thread ends hidden and some quilt in-the-ditch which I will do on my Janome later.

Nancy, Your heart is just beautiful. I love that the color of the red thread shows up so beautifully. I like to clearly see the quilting. Very nice work. Thanks for sharing

Another project well done.

Glide is my favorite quilting thread, hands down. I have some of their silk thread, but haven't done much with it yet. I'm sure I'm going to love it, too! I've had good results with their invisible thread, too. They are my favorite thread manufacturer, in case you couldn't tell. ;)

So beautiful, Nancy--you ARE a master! Love what you did with both Glide and Kimono 100. Personally, I love Glide thread; have you tried Fil-Tec's silk threads yet?

Nancy, I love your heart. The background quilting is wonderful. It kind of reminds me of pennant flags blowing in the wind. I am not good at names either. Glad you got it finished for your challenge.
