myself. And, it appears today's winner will too. Thank you, Coats and
Clark.

This would be so useful! And make sewing even more fun.
Wow, what a useful and colorful giveaway!
Hoorah for giveaways!
I needs a sewing room to put these beauties in! Thank you again for such a generous month, you rock!
Love this, I sew almost every day!
Oh, how I love thread! The colors are just beautiful–too pretty to be kept hidden away!
oooh – can’t ever have enough thread!!
oh wow. who couldn’t use a rainbow of awesome thread! I love C & C thread.
Oh to have a collection of threads like these! Awesome giveaway 😀
Thanks for the chance ….
Awesome giveaway! Thanks!!
More thread is always useful!
No more fiddling around looking for a thread that might match because you’d have all you’d need to make sure you had a match. Thanks for the giveaway!
We are renovating my sewing room soon. These beauties would look amazing on the walls! Thank you for the chance to win 🙂
Wow – all those colors are amazing. Would love to have these. Thanks for your generosity this month!!!!
I just bought thread racks for the re-design of my craft room…….These would look fabulous on them! C & C is the best!
My mom always used coats and clark and so do I. This would save a lot of last minute runs to Walmart for thread. webb dot rachel at gmail dot com
One can never have too much thread. I love to use contrasting colors at times and coordinating at others 🙂
Oh goodness! You have chosen some great prizes, thank you.
Luv all the thread colors. Thanks for the giveaway Heather!
A great giveaway Heather! Everyone can use more thread. And I so agree about the beauty aspect. I enjoy just looking at the array of colors wherever they lay awaiting a visit from my creative muse. If I win the tread, I will be giving it to my daughter. She got into sewing as an adult about two years ago and having had her first child 8 months ago, I see the need for beautiful thread in her future 😉

Wow I love all the colors!
awesome selection of thread! amazing giveaways 🙂
Ok, even your thread display is beautiful! My poor thread gets stashed away in a box. 🙂
I love to sew! And I wish I could sew every day (darn full-time job gets in the way).
Thanks for the giveaway! Rainbow thread is awesome!
You would never have to search for the perfect color again…..
This is fantastic! Thanks!
I love to sew!
What an awesome giveaway! I love sewing with contrasting colors!
Awesome. Love all the colors!
Great giveaway, thank you 🙂 🙂
Love me some fun colored thread! Crossing my fingers!!!
So pretty seeing all the colors together…I could really use this!
Wahoo!!!! What sewer couldn’t use more thread?! LOVE! Thank you for the opportunity!
OMGorgeous threads!!! My heart is beating faster at the sight of all of the bright colors!!!! FABulous giveaway!!! Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
Wonderful giveaway. Thank you for offering it.
What a great giveaway!! I hope I win 😉
What a wonderful colorful giveaway – thread is something we can never have enough of. Thank you Heather for this wonderful month of giveaways. After reading your post on trash ties, I felt so bad for you. To be betrayed by a “friend” and have so much taken from you could leave a person bitter. But instead you are so generous and your creations are beautiful and positively joyful. Clearly they are a reflection of your inner spirit.
Love, love, love this thread! I use it all the time. I would love, love, love to win this one. Please choose me😍
Oh how fabulous! That would be so useful, thank you! 🙂
Wow, great give-away! Thanks for the chance to win.
Ohhhhh man that’s awesome!
I need this so bad!!
WOW! What a great prize!
That photo makes that thread look gorgeous! Whenever I buy new fabric, I tend to overlook the whole “needs to be sewn with thread” thing, having a stash of thread would be lovely (and wouldn’t take up that much room, compared to stashes of yarn and fabric…)
Not only useful, but that would look so good on my wall in my craft room!
What a treat! Thank you! 🙂
What a great collection! Perfect for matching up on all my projects!
I’m a beginner when it comes to sewing so I was very happy to read that you use this brand thread for your sewing! Thanks for opportunity – love your blog!
I can see all of the quilts I could make with those spools of thread! Pick me!!! 🙂
Ooh, pretty!
Oooohhh I want, I want, I want!
I love it when practical stuff is so very pretty. Thanks for the chance to win!
I need, need, need this collection of thread 🙂
This would definitely solve the problem I have of always needing to buy a new spool of thread for every single sewing project I start!
Love the thread!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Lovely!!
Thread is my crack…I just can’t get enough! Seriously, I got the shakes when I saw this give-away!
beautiful and fun!!
All those colors look so pretty!
I sew daily! Well, until I go back to teaching in a couple of weeks. I would definitely love to add more thread to my supply!
Thread never looks so pretty at the fabric store! 😉 What a great collection of colors. I always seem to forget the thread when I get fabric so this would allow me to have some amazing colors on hand. They go so well with your designs…as if magically paired.
All the colors of the rainbow!!! Sew Bright and Sweet!! Thank you for sharing your love of color with us 🙂
I’m just getting back into sewing and finding it so fun! Love all the pretty thread colors!!
Pretty! It be nice to sew with a different color thread besides white! Haha!
I would love to win!
early Birthday gift for me 🙂

You can never have too much thread!!!
Super cool giveaway!!!! Somebody is going to be really happy to win these!!!
Oh this is amazing!! Would be a dream come true! Thanks for the chance to win.
Thanks for the chance! So beautiful!
Rainbow thread! I use the big spools of C&C for everyday piecing 🙂
Oh wow!!
Love this!! Thanks for the giveaways!!
I would love to win more thread. I like to match the thread to the fabric as closely as possible when I sew.
What a blessing this would be to win this thread. I sew for a living!
Oooooh what pretty thread!! I would love to win this. Thank you for the chance!
And I am sad about your dresser. 🙁
I would think I’d died and gone to heaven if I won this!!! 🙂
Drool! I’d love to win this rainbow!
I can always use more thread! This is such a cool thing you’re doing!
Love the colors!
Nice! I would love to have more thread! 🙂
I think if I win this that I am going to plan contrasting top stitching on my next several projects. Well I kind of do this already but it is white on whatever colorful fabric I am sewing with.
Loving, loving LOVING these! I could always use more color, especially when it comes to little thread splashes on projects.
Oh those colors are so tempting! I can always use more thread 🙂
Fresh thread–such inspiration! TIA Judi
Lovely!
I LOVE thread! Awesome giveaway.
Fabulous giveaway! Thank you!!!
Another great prize! Who couldn’t use more thread?

I love thread almost as much as fabric the colors are beautiful. It would be nice to win. Thank You for your give away. I bought two packs of your Trash Ties and thought they were a great idea. I still have them didn’t figure out how to use them as I wanted to bend them and it seemed I wasn’t strong enough. I wanted my daughter to use them in my grand daughters hair and she thought I was crazy, Trash Ties. I am sorry for what you have gone through, it is very disheartening and hard to believe there people in this world who would blatantly steal your product. I still like the Trash Ties, and I love all your beautiful designs.
Such lovely colors, I would love to have these!
Another great prize!
The colors are wonderful. What a great collection.
Oh wow! Most of my thread is only white, off white, and cream. It would be a joy to have such colorful choices.
