I have not stopped laughing since my another use for Aurifil post yesterday. Thanks for all the great giggles and comments you left. Thanks as well to Annabella, Lynne and particularly Alex Veronelli for spreading the word about threading as well as putting my ugly mug on the Aurifil facebook page!! Hilarious!
Fits of laughter have prevented me from having any proper finishes this week, although I did manage to complete block 17 of my Rose Star quilt:
If you want to make these gorgeous blocks please visit the fabulous selfsewn for the tutorial as well as great info on English Paper Piecing.
My wonderful friend has given birth to a beautiful baby boy so I'm desperate to get her quilt finished up and sent. I'll be hand quilting some though so I'm not rushing too much. I really want her and her amazing husband to love it! So far, so good... check out how nicely these points match up!! I've been using Lynne's great technique :)

Sweetie it certainly was the most amusing Aurifil post in ages! Loved it. Havent got it to work yet mind you.. will try again tho!
Bonkers!
Cindy and I were just saying that someone needed to alert Alex.....so happy it has been done!
Wonder if Alex will try it out??
If he is at Birmingham perhaps you could use him for your demo!??
Great rose star - but I do say that every time don't I ? It's true tho'...
Look forward to seeing the finished quilt, it's going to be gorgeous.
Hee hee - you are very welcome! I love your new stardom as an Aurifil threader to quilting celebrity and starlets. Your rose block is gorgeous and I shall check out that site as EPP may be my new love.
If all else fails, you can set up a stand in Superdrug or something, offering threading there ;o)
You're hilarious, Lucy! I've missed you in my hiatus from blog reading! I can't believe you have 17 of those rose star blocks.. can't wait to see them all together one day. :) I'm sure your friends will love the quilt.. looking forward to the reveal. Have a great weekend!
