    Hi Karen. Thank you so much for this video. I wanted to chime in on an additional benefit of the Wash Away Threads. I took 6 yards of fabric and some cotton batting and made a practice quilt. I stitched horizontal lines 6 inches apart and stitched up the sides. I use this to practice my quilting on my domestic and longarm machines. By using the wash away thread, I'm able to use this piece over and over. When the practice quilt is full, I simply spray the back, pull out the top threads, and throw it in the wash. This method saves money and doesn't create surplus in my sewing space. I also use it to warm up when I'm in the middle of a quilt and have had to walk away. I hope someone can use this idea. It has saved me a lot of money and resources! Thank you so much for your awesome videos!

I can hardly wait to bind another project so I can use some fusible thread. I have heard of this thread before, but didn’t know why or how I would use it in a project. I took sewing in junior high back in the day when schools offered classes like that. But really got into and enjoying sewing 3 years ago.
