I get all excited when the UPS guy brings a box with this label!
This is my first order of the large cones, so can't wait to unpack it...
3000 yard cones, 2 to a box, of the 60 wt. silk finish cotton that I piece with....
...and one box of two 2000 yard cones of the 50 wt. silk finish cotton in one of my favorite colors, cream #703. I'll be using that in the bobbin of the next quilt I'm quilting for myself and possibly for some of the thread in the top of the machine as well. I have to decide whether I want the silk finish look or a shinier look like Poly Sheen would give me.
My friend Tiffany Hayes, of Needle in a Hayes Stack, did the hand appliqued blocks for me. You'll see a lot more of this quilt when I get to the actual quilting.
Lastly, the five colors of 50 wt. silk finish cotton in the small spools that I was running out of. So nice to have everything topped off!

I can't find where to order the large cones of this thread. Even on the Mettler site. I must be looking wrong.
