THREAD!!!

YAY! my thread arrived today! So I've decided I'm going to hand quilt my Modify Tradition quilt top. Because there are so many different colors in the quilt I had no idea which Perle cotton threads I wanted. So...I ordered them all!  I found a great deal on Perle cotton thread at ThreadArt.com. They even have this great set of all the colors 50% off. So I just had to get it, right? Looking at all the spools, I just know this is going to be PERFECT for my quilt! Over the weekend I also ordered my quilting frame from Joann's. (well, I ordered 2: a 17"x17" and an 8"x8") Joann's had the best price I could find and I was able to use a 40% off coupon on the larger frame and the other one was already on sale 40% off (which i think is over now) So anyway, once I get my frame I'll be getting started on this project. I'm rather excited!
