Thank you Angela ! I have been filling you for years. I'm working a quilt and was getting distracted as it wasn't coming out the way I wanted so I started doing more echoing and it looks much better! So much happier with it My go to thread is what ever matches my project so it don't show all the mistakes!
It's so hard to choose a favorite but I've used pale mist a lot because it blends so well with all kinds of fabrics and I love colorful quilts. But I must say when I received my thread set with the Floral Frames, just seeing them all together in the bag made my heart race. I get hit with an adrenaline rush whenever I shop for fabric and thread. I've learned a lot from Angela and appreciate her enthusiasm but what has really sunk into my brain (Finally) is that quilts really do look good upon completion and to just keep going. (I have actually thrown projects away due to frustration!) No more. Also one of the most valuable tips I learned was to look ahead of the needle. That actually works!
My favourite glide thread is Eureka. It’s not a stark black and is fairly versatile when black is needed. Thanks for this challenge. I’m going back to review all of the videos and make my first attempt to ruler and free motion quilt this lovely panel. Thank you!
My go to glide color is “Dijon”. It’s a light non-metallic gold, perfect for outlining or all over general quilting. Adds just a touch of elegance! On your last mandala quilt challenge, I got the taffy color and found it to be very intriguing, and I’m not a person usually for coral, but this is gorgeous. So excited to see color card for glide, put me in on that giveaway! Awesome! I got the ribbon candy as a stencil from “Full Line stencils” that use the pounce pad and they didn’t exactly fit where I used them so I had to size it in the space accordingly but it was an excellent guide anyway for my learning and I got better as I went along! Highly recommend doing that. Just get some smaller ones and learn the movement on the design, without a lot of cost! I have the small candle for example, from them which made a great flame center with echos around that. The holy on the candle can be separated from the candle for learning that design! I must say I tried various sized swirls on the border of a quilt I just finished with a background fabric of smoke-like bubbles. My swirls did not come out very uniform like yours are, however, it all blends and adds nice texture. I did get very bored with it, so I tried different thread dark/light colors to break it up (all in the same color family of blue-gray matching the fabric colors).
You are so fearless with your designs!! I watch how you stitch out your designs and you just do it! I’m thinking I may overthink things way too much!! I guess I need quilt courage! Haha!
Thank you! Having my own thread card would be like a kid with their own Sears catalog! My go to color would be Cool Grey 3 because I have a cone of it. I'd love one of the pale yellows and Pale Mist.
My favorite go-to colors are pale grays and light creams, but having a thread card would help me to expand my options. Thank you for all the wonderful content you provide.
I have used Celery on many varied color quilts. Vegas Gold is another that works well on lots of colors the shininess of the glide threads helps them to blend with whatever is surrounding them…reflects the fabric color a bit.
Glide is my absolute favorite thread for FM and ruler quilting. My sewing machine loves it, too! My favorite color is, insert drum roll here, linen. Definitely linen.
I love using the thread chart, mine is so out dated, I could really use a new one. So many favorites, I love the linen, but also the cloud and light grays.
My favorite useful color is cool grey but I definitely lean toward all greenblue hues in almost everything I make! My question for next week is.. How do we find information about techniques and patterns from older series, efficiently. For instance in the live chat videos, some extra details are shared about how to make a swirl or how to fill in background not covered in the regular posted episode. So when I try to find those extras it’s really hard. Can a table of contents be made with time stamps for the live chats? Probably too much work to do for old ones, but going forward?
How to choose one favorite thread color ... Is that really possible? There are just so many! I'm new to the Glide threads. Love the colors that you selected for this challenge. Pale Mist is really pretty! Thank you for all the tips and especially the close ups in the videos.
I love the golds. Not really a neutral but does sparkle up so many quilts! Just finished a quilt that's various greens with neutral backgrounds and used the 20466 Sand (which looks gold to me)... just perfect!!
The swirl chain took me a while to get right on paper but once I got it I wondered why it took me so long. I had to tell myself to take off from the base and go to its opposite end to make the next swirl.
I struggle with picking a favorite thread color, but I really have fallen in love with Glide’s Hope (the hot pink). I love practicing designs with it on a lighter pink solid…the combination is beautiful and it makes me happy, even if my designs are still a bit wonky!!
As others have said, it's difficult to choose! My faves are Bone, Yellow Whisper, and Sterling! It was fun tho to use brighter colours as in your thread painting segments. Thanks Angela for all your inspiration!
my favorite glide color is Cool Mint. I heard Tula say (I think in a Fat Quarter Shop interview a few years ago) that her fave neutral color was mint. I tried it and I love it. I use it more than any other color
It’s like trying to pick my favorite child! Yikes I LOVE all things pink but I don’t do a lot of thread painting, and don’t feel comfortable enough for a contrast so the most useful colors to me are all the palest of every shade. Bottom line is you are a wonderful person and I don’t know what I ever did,BAW/BGT (before Angela Walters, and before Glide thread😊)
As always lots of really useful tips; thank you Angela. Favourite colour to quilt in? It depends :-) Mostly I like it to blend in with the background which in my case is white.
Thank you Angela ! I have been filling you for years. I'm working a quilt and was getting distracted as it wasn't coming out the way I wanted so I started doing more echoing and it looks much better! So much happier with it
My go to thread is what ever matches my project so it don't show all the mistakes!
I don't know any names but I like the color green. Thank you Angela, I have learned so much from watching your videos!
I sew a lot of Pinks so pink or white. I love how the thread looks on my quilts. Love your content. Thank you so much.
Angela - I continue to learn from you through your videos! My favorite color thread is the Glide Buttercup! Thank you for so many quilting adventures!
My go to color is Flint! Thanks for the video and this quilt along.
First time commenting 😊 just wanna say thank you for all ur teaching ❤️

I really like the soft green colours, so versatile. Like Cool Mint. Thanks for everything you do for us, I am inspired after every video. Hugs.

My new favorite color is plum. I did some thread painting on the panel Mama and Me bears.

I love reds and purples. Glide thread truly the greatest thread to use!!

Mine as well
I love all my Glide threads (thank you Angela for introducing me to them), but my absolute fav is Tawny!

I purposely waited to quilt my challenge fabric. I think I'm ready!!! Eeeeeeeeee!!!

I love the ivory colors and light yellows

Thanks for all great info!! I love Glide Mint Julep!
I always learn so much from your presentations!! I especially like your analogies - like using google maps :)
I really like Pale Mist. I want to try some of the glow in the dark glide threads.
The swirl chain took me a while to get right on paper but once I got it I wondered why it took me so long. I had to tell myself to take off from the base and go to its opposite end to make the next swirl.
I struggle with picking a favorite thread color, but I really have fallen in love with Glide’s Hope (the hot pink). I love practicing designs with it on a lighter pink solid…the combination is beautiful and it makes me happy, even if my designs are still a bit wonky!!
My favorite Pale Mist, Yellow Whisper and any blue.
As others have said, it's difficult to choose! My faves are Bone, Yellow Whisper, and Sterling! It was fun tho to use brighter colours as in your thread painting segments. Thanks Angela for all your inspiration!
My favorite thread color depends on the quilt top as I like to have my thread blend in with the top.
My favourite is pale mist. And I also love linen.
I usually quilt with a light grey or yellow..when in doubt or don't have the thread set you pick for me😉😍
My go-to thread is sterling ir mercury. Love glide!
