Essential THREAD colors for machine quilting!

[@ourblessedhouse]

First day of "shorts" that your volume is back to being good!! Not sure what was different on this day, but keep it like this!

[@StitchedBySusan]

Sadly, I’m not sure either🤣

[@cindymclean]

I use a lot of rust colors. They blend well with most of the reds.

I’m late to the show 😅 good to see this show on your favorite threads. I agree completely , greys are my go to for very neutral.

I have truly enjoyed your topics over the past month. Stumbled upon you and am hooked on your advice. I have only quilted my own quilts but already used a few of your tips with success!! Would love to be able to free motion quilt but have only used pantos thus far. I do not feel i have the creative trait and find myself stuck when doodling to try to figure out how i would get unsruck. Thank you for your little snippets. Sherri

hello watching the replay from Florida. Love your tips and advice in all areas of using a long arm. and quilting. I have the BabyLock Tiara III sit down machine, have had it for 7 years. Hardly used it for a long time, almost sold it for this reason, recently changed my mind and now I’m trying to use it more. Am interested in your tips regarding thread colors used in quilting.

Thanks. Very useful, once again.

Oh wish I could go on the cruise. I’m retiring in March and not able to take the time out n January as I’ll be training. I hope you do this again perhaps in later in 2025

[@StitchedBySusan]

We are tentatively planning an additional one, but likely not until 2026. We'll keep you posted!

Hi Susan, would you put the colour number for the go-to thread? I have purchased the thread card.

[@StitchedBySusan]

Did you have a specific one in mind? The Eggshell is 0101.

Why not a color that shows instead of blending?

[@StitchedBySusan]

Absolutely can! I just don’t care for one that blends in some places and is high contrast in others. But that is strictly personal preference 👍🏻

[@snickerbuckle]

Sometimes if you use a thread that shows up more than one that blends it can detract from the piecing in a quit top. It depends on the results you’re going for
