So, did you see the video and now you need some thread? Like you really, really need some thread? Well my darlings you have come to the right place! The holiday merrymakers at Fil-Tec -The home home of Bobbin Central are big-time supporters of BadAss Quilters Society and they are helping us say Happy Holidays to you in the merriest of ways!
The engineers at Bobbincentral.com have been working some very long hours on their new 60 weight Glide thread that is thin like a human hair and yet strong and up for the challenge of your more trying sewing, embroidery or quilting jobs. So if you are needing something thinner for fine lettering when it comes to embroidery, want to reduce the sometimes “thready” nature of backtracking in some quilting designs or just want a different look to your coverage this thread was engineered for that!
Glide 40wt. has been my go-to thread for a lot of years so having yet another option in the Glide family is very exciting! I encourage you to learn more about all the threads at Bobbincentral and then seek them out at your local sewing store since shopping local is what the cool kids do! You might want to check out the giveaways they have going on as well over on their Bobbin Central Facebook Page page…maybe you will win two times!
If you don’t have a local store that carries Glide might I suggest that you check out our BAQS Preferred Provider for Glide products Sparrow Quilt Studio and check out that sweet discount!!
or check the Store Locator on the Bobbin Central Website for a store near you!
In the meantime how about taking the chance on winning some thread?

I really enjoy your videos. I saved for six years to buy a mid arm free motion machine. I am just getting to know it and the thread would be so much fun to experiment with. I love watching your quilts come to life.
Winning This would be like hearing sleigh bells in the snow, on a white Christmas!
I would love to win! I might even share with my mom if I won, cause she deserves a happy surprise as well. I finish school in January, so this would be an awesome jumping off point to start quilting again!
Amazing!
What a colorful way to celebrate the Holidays with a rainbow of threads to embellish my quilts.
This would make Christmas very fun! What a great giveaway.
What beautiful colors! They’d be a great addition for my embroidery machine.
I would love to use this on my Bernina Q20–merry and bright for sure!
Yes to more thread! I am loving the smaller threads & who doesn’t like colors?
Merry Christmas!
I prefer longarming with 60# thread. Perfect gift for my starving Innova!!
Merry Christmas to all!
20 cones of Glide would make anyone’s Holidays merry and bright…..especially mine!
This would be amazing to win! My Christmas sewing has come to an abrupt halt since I broke my arm ?, but once I can use all of my fingers again I’ll be right back on my machine. These would be a wonderful way to get back to my happy place!
These are gorgeous! What an amazing gift it will be for some lucky person. Merry Christmas!
I would love the cones of thread for embroidery and quilting on my sweet sixteen
I am intrigued. I am frantically working on a memorial for my in-laws quilt for a show, it’s due on January 3! It involves tropical sunset images representing them meeting in Panama, and their favorite Navy duty station in the Philippines. I’d love to try my hand at thread painting!
VERY Merry and EXTRA Bright!!! That’s what winning the 60 wt. Glide would make me! Thanks for the opportunity!!!
Winning the beautiful thread would be amazing!!!
Love you and BAQ and Glide!!
I’d love to try Glide 60. I sure like Glide 40.
In fact, bobbin thread is the only specific thing I asked for this year. ?
I can see a 20 cone tree in my quilting room, all shiny and bright!!!! Thanks!!!
Multi colors of thread would make my Christmas merry.
My New Years resolution is to quilt MY quilts, not just customer’s, and I like lots of Quilting, so the Glide 60wt would be perfect.
Winning this would certainly brighten my day. Hope to win!
Oooo…I’d love ❤️ to win the 60 wt Glide thread package. The glistening cones of Glide thread would even make bright and shiny ornaments on my tree ?!!!!

I ❤️ Glide! It’s really the only thread I use! This would make my quilting so bright!
I have been searching for something like this!
Winning this thread would make my Christmas so bright… I have never tried glide thread but would love to
I can’t wait to try this thread for micro stippling and not just as bobbin fill. The large cones look terrific for a long arm along with the wonderful colors. Thanks for introducing us to it
I just got a new Tiara, and I am experimenting with thread, and 20 different colors would launch me into next year!
I LOVE Glide thread and I’m so happy they have come out with a 60 wt. I love to do tiny micro background fills do this is going to be amazing!!
I t would make my Christmas so bright I’d have to wear shades… and 80 SPF 🙂
Last Christmas I received a sit down long arm and have been getting acquainted with it. 2017 would be Merry and Bright if I won the threads giveaway and had all the yummy colors to quilt away with.
As a fan since your Gen Q mag days who still hangs your Quilts with Shirtless Men and Burritos calendar and yearns for another while using inferior thread, pick me!!
This would definitely increase my thread stash!
This would make an awesome Christmas present!?
All I want for Christmas is 60 weight glide thread!!!! Would love to try it.

I love Glide thread, I use it on my longarm and my embroidery machine
this would be awesome to add to my thread collection

Very nice Christmas present for someone…hope it’s me. Thank you so much for this opportunity.
This would be one of the best Christmas presents ever!!!!
This is such an awesome giveaway and everyone who made it possible needs a big thank you. Good luck to everyone.
I’m going to throw my hat in the ring and cross my fingers it looks like it can be used for embroidery and guess who just got a machine for Christmas from her husband.
So I’m trying out different threads and going through every scrap fabric I have playing with it just in the last couple days. I’d love to really be able to let loose and start a full project.
I would love to try the 60# Glide.
Winning this would be so cool. I am a new longarmer and donthave many threads yet.
Winning these cones would make Christmas awesomely bright. Great demo too.
Winning this prize would make my Christmas as shiny as rudolfs nose.???
This would really make my Christmas bright. If I have to be on for the livecast to win, then I can’t win. I have an medical appointment that morning.
