I think Thread Art carries it. I have also bought it from JoAnns and Hobby Lobby. Hobby lobby just put som fabric on line, I think the thread is on line too.

They sell the King Tut and the price is way less than your LQS. Yeah, you have to pay shipping, but the prices and selection are great.

Try Joann's Fabrics online. I was in the store today and they had lots of verigated thread so they probably have it online also.

i go to

www.baysidequilting.com

when they have a sale. i'm not bonded to any particular brand as long as the weight is right, and i use poly, rayon, and silk, as well as cotton. i've tried all the brands they sell. if the needle eye is smooth and the quality of the thread is good, i never have a problem. except with invisible thread. yuck.

i don't know why that didn't make a link. sorry. try this:


https://www.baysidequilting.com/stor...?idCategory=90 (nope)

just look up threads and bobbins, then choose the thread you're interested in. they're having a sale right now on valdani, a very nice thread, $3.00, a good price. sometimes they close out colors. that's when i buy.

http://www.baysidequilting.com/ - - at long last!!!

and a sale on superior, $5.00. nice.

I've found it at Connecting Threads and Nancy's Notions they usually have it in stock and occassionally on sale.

I love variegated thread. Not all is made well, though. I purchased a pink and white for a rag quilt and I am now having to reinforce the seams by hand with my old standby, Gutterman, b/c the seams are coming apart and I am afraid to finish it without this precaution. This is the first time I have had this problem though! Find a brand that works and stick to it. Don't just buy something that is pretty... that is what I did.
