    Default Long Arm Thread

    Ok, I have googled and googled and am getting rather discouraged. I would love to try out some YLI and Aurifil threads for my long arm and just cant quite find anywhere to purchase them? Does anyone have a nice source for either of these?

    I have several different Superior threads, have used Signature as well. But would love to try YLI and Aurifil. Specifically the YLI Metallics. I am hunting a snow colored metallic for a christmas quilt.

    THanks!

    fabric.com carries some aurifil threads- I have picked up a few from them- one of the best things about fabric.com is they offer free shipping at the $35

    http://www.redrockthreads.com/ has Aurifil and YLI.

    You might want to try Glide thread (my favorite for my midarm); I haven't tried their metallics:

    I haven't shopped at the following, but they seem to carry YLI metallic:

    I buy the large cones of Aurifil from www.pumpkinvinecorner.com. Her prices are the best I have found and she ships super fast and very reliable. She also have the smaller 1400 yd spools too. Not sure where to get YLI, I haven't tried that one.
