Superior Christmas Tree

Need any ideas as you decorate your Christmas tree this year?

How about putting together a Superior Christmas tree?

We know what we would like under the tree... and on the tree... and by the tree.

Including something that is as BRYTES as the lights.

Tell Santa to make sure he has a lot of thread in his sleigh.

And last, but not least, every tree needs to be topped with a Metallic cone angel, complete with Machinger wings.
*our thanks goes to Pat, Ricci and Deisy for their superior decorating ideas.

Locating Superior Thead Products In Your Area

Have you experienced the situation where you are working on a project, and run out of your favorite Superior thread?
No need to stress. We have a solution for you!
On our website, we provide a STORE LOCATOR where you can look up the nearest quilt store that sell Superior Thread products.
Search by zip code or State/Province or country. We do recommend calling them before making a long trip to make sure they have the exact product you are looking for. With over 1,000 Superior products, we understand that stores cannot stock most of our products. We appreciate those that carry any of our products.

If our products are not available in a store in your area, please ask, beg, and plead with them to add Superior products. They will listen to you.

Texture Magic Tuesday/ Staff Stockings

Annie Unrein has designed a new Texture Magic pattern just in time for Christmas. Festive Stockings can be used for any occasion. Stuff a special stocking with goodies and notes and hang it from a bedpost or doorknob to celebrate special days- birthdays, anniversaries...whatever!

We got together as a staff here at Superior Threads to make Festive Stockings.

Our guinea pigs did a wonderful job!

Deisy had never used a sewing machine before. We are so proud of beautiful job she did in making and finishing her stocking.

Each person used a different Superior Thread to sew with, and stitched the Texture Magic with a variety of designs.

There are three sizes included in the pattern: small, medium and large.

The pattern was so easy to follow.

Unless of course, you have someone in your group who likes to be contrary. All of ours faced to the right, so of course Carrie made hers facing to the left!

Festive Stockings can be ordered on our website.

Texture Magic Tuesday/ Norrie's Bag

Recently Norrie MacIlraith of Minnesota, participated in our School of Threadology. While she was in class she showed us the bag she had made with Texture Magic.

Norrie is currently the Texture Magic Rep over the East Minnesota area. As part of her responsibilities she visits quilt stores, guilds, and various groups to show the wonderful ways to work with Texture Magic.

She used Texture Magic on different sections of her bag, highlighting how different stitches produce various results in texture.

The inside had several pockets, with plenty of room to carry packages of Texture Magic and Texture Magic friendly patterns. Notice she also left enough room to include several projects made with Texture Magic, too.

It was so nice to meet Norrie, to have her participate in our School of Threadology, and to feel her enthusiasm.
Norrie sent us this note once she arrived home:
"I want you to know that I appreciated all your planning for this classes, fabulous meals, and general care of the participants—it felt truly special. Please extend a thank you to all your staff."
