I received some spools of thread to try out. I can't wait to find the right project for that variegated thread.
Aurifil has five different types of thread:
- 12 wt cotton: Embellishment and Sashiko
- 12 wt wool: Cross stitch and hand embroidery
- 28 wt cotton: Hand quilting and blanket stitch
- 40 wt cotton: Machine quilting and embroidery
- 50 wt cotton: The best thread for piecing and applique
I also received a couple color cards. I love all these colors. I just want to display them. These are all their wool thread colors.
And all the cotton colors.
These cute little spool were also in my package:
I admit I'm a little sad to give these away. I love all the fun colors and could definitely find a use for them, but five of you will get a chance to win a set of threads from Aurifil. Each pack contains a spool of all five Auriful threads.
Just leave a comment, and Mr. Random will pick our winners on Tuesday, September 20th.

I love color cards as well!
I haven't tried their thread, and didn't realize they made so many types.
Don't laugh at me but I feel bad now entering the giveaway when you'd love so badly to keep one for yourself! My heart goes "oh!". Thank you for pulling through and carrying on with the giveaway regardless!
Oh, wow, I would love to try these out! I can understand not wanting to give them away, I've heard they are positively wonderful :)
Wow! I've been wanting to try aurafil thread for a while now. Thanks for the chance to win some.
That is so nice of you to give them away. I'm not sure I'd do that. :)
I hear good things about this thread, but I have yet to try it.
Wow! Thanks for sharing the Aurofils. I do love that thread.
I LOVE Aurifil and have been dying to try out the other weights, I usually use 50wt. I keep entering these giveaways and have yet to win, keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get lucky with yours!
Oh fun, thanks for the chance!
Thank you for the giveaway! I know how hard it is when you want to keep the thing you’re supposed to be giving away :)
I’ve had one taste of Aurifil—28wt that I used to quilt with. But that is the only thing the shops near me carry!
I'd really love to try Aurifil! Thanks for the chance!
I'd love a chance to win these! Thank you for the giveaway!
Ooo pretty pretty colours! :)
I have been reading so much about Aurifil, I have yet to try it. This would be a lovely chance for me. :)
Have heard so much adulation for this thread. Would love to have the chance to give it a try :)
OOh, I'd love to give these a go. I'm a sucker for advertising and these are everywhere at the moment, just tempting me!
The colors are beautiful, hope I win one.
Thanks for the generous giveaway!!
I've just started using some of this thread and I love it! I didn't realize 40 was the weight to use for quilting. I'm pretty sure I've always used the 50 that I piece with. I'll have to give it a try!
I've heard great things about Aurifil, but I haven't tried it yet. Would love to win!
I love Aurifil thread and would love to try some other colors. I use it mostly for piecing.
Me and my sewing machine both love this thread, I use it almost exclusively.

Wishlisting these! :)
How fun! I've never tried Auriful before but I'd love to.

Hey Kati,
I've been watching this thread for weeks now. But, I have broke down and bought any yet. I hear so many good things about it... I would love to TRY it before I invest, ya know?
Thanks for the giveaway! I hope I win, so I can try it! :)
Wouldn't it be nice to win this! Thank-you for the chance.
I'd find it hard to give those away too - thank you :)
I'd love to try some Aurifil thread!
I use the 50w all the time but haven't tried any of the others so a sample pack would be fabulous!
I treated myself to one reel and it really is as good as 'they' say! Thanks for the chance x
uh, that would be great to have a pack to try!
I'm so envious of those beautiful color cards! :) Would love to win a pack.
Oooh! So fun! Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to win to try the different weights of thread. Thanks for a chance to win!
Aurifil thread is the BEST! I buy white, beige and cream by the jumbo cone that's 6,472 yards! It may seem pricey at about $30, but it lasts for years for machine piecing, machine applique, and machine quilting. Thanks for the chance to win!
I'd love to test out some new thread! Thanks for the chance to win!
i love these threads, i bought some aurifil recently and love it, but would adore some new colors. alas, quilting all colors in seagreen is not so great.

Aruiful is just a dream to quilt with! I would really enjoy trying the other weights for different applications! Thanks for sharing these!
I keep entering all the contests for these threads but sadly I'm still Aurifil threadless. lol. I'm going to have to give in and buy it now. Thanks for the giveaway.

omgosh how fun! I would love to win this! - pick me, pick me!
I'm SO putting my name in the hat for this one! I haven't had the chance to use any Aurifil thread yet and so want to! I simply stink at picking weights of threads. *sigh* Thanks SO much for the chance to win!
Thanks, Kati! I'd love to win!
What fun thread! I'd love to try it!
I'm intrigued by the different weights...I HAVE TO try them all. Thank you for the chance to win the experience.
