Got Thread?

While shop hoping in Montgomery, my niece & me stopped at walmart,she asked doesn't our walmart sell thread? I said barely but they don't sell all the colors like this in the all purpose,so we laugh at the thought of driving 2 hours for  thread🤣

A reusable bag is always good but beware of the staple

my first thought was ouch  now i have a hole in my finger😄 then maybe they did that on purpose so you cant zip it open & steal the thread🤷

All of it wouldn't fit in my large thread jar so I seperated lights & darks

My thread shelf is growing 🤣*all purpose,*100% cotton,*embroidery,*serger,*whites/blacks/greys*,quilting ,how do you organize your threads?

More Shop Hop Adventures

 Well after coming to the conclusion that Tuesday must be the new Monday as everything within the 1-2 hr driving range was closed on Mondays, yesterday was narrowed down to about 2 ,after meeting the sweet ladies of Sew Bernina in Montgomery we decided we'd visit shops that were in area while were were there ,I kid you not 4 out of business 🤣 so off to walmart & Golden Corral for dinner & back home with a squealing,leg kicking happy baby in the back & 2 grown women in the front bee bopping & singing along with Elmo & Cookie monster 🤣🤣 

 

Their quilts made up with the special shop hop fabrics are gorgeous!they even made up kits for different projects

Remember to laugh often & make the best of your day
