witha'K'quilting Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Hey MB...This is still awful though. Why are we always drawn to posts with someone else's name on them?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Yep got the thread and Rulermate, glad you got the base and ruler. Now I hate tease type messages , so spill it. So we all know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Yes do spill. Mary Beth and Kristina I was snickering at your "peaking." LOL you aren't alone because there are 70 views of this message and nobody else was brave enough to admit they want to know too! :P:P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 True confessions...I peek every time someone does a shout out to someone else. Now, when they say something like "I've got a secret..." Then I refresh the screen over and over until I find out what's going on :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nora123 Posted February 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 This thread is made is the USA which give me great pride to be a part of. I always look for made in america. AND the price is very good too.Ok ladies here is the news. I had a phone interview with Chris Meyers at Fil-Tech thread and magna bobbins this morning. I am now a commissioned rep for them. He is sending me a box of samples of their thread and bobbins. So if you want to try a sample of the magna bobbins just let me know and I will send you one. There is a youtube showing the magna bobbins run through a towa and a regular bobbin in a towa and then they run them as if they are in the bobbin assembly and you can see how constant the dial is for the magna bobbin tension and the regular bobbin tension varies radically. Especially as the bobbin gets down to the end. The thread is really nice too. I will get to be part of choosing the colors for the thread and matching magna bobbins. I am very excited about this opportunity. Nora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Now see, that wasn't so hard Congratulations Nora!! Can I try a sample? I've been wondering about these bobbins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBQLTN2 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Wonderful news Nora , Congratulations. I have some samples on their way to me now. Just became a member and I am anxious to try the thread and bobbins out. So is there something special we need to do to adjust the bobbin tension. Is it supposed to run tighter or looser than our normal adjustments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Now that is goods news Nora. How exciting for you. Heid..you just didn't have the guts to admit you were peeking...shame on you...and you were laughing at PJ, MB and myself. (finger shaking in your direction) Shame shame!!

Gator Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 CONGRATS!!! I'm jealous, if I had a brick and mortar or online store I would love to be a Fil-Tech rep! I am totally impressed and happy with their products. They are really trying to enter the LA world and really listening to us. I love Superior Thread, Bob and the gang but these Fil-Tech products are great. Nora isn't Chris the nicest "sales rep"! He sent me a second sample package for helping to get the word out. I need to get a pic and testimonial (can't spell, we need spell check) for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagecl Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Congrats Nora. I haven't tried their thread, but maybe in the future. Since I am not in business anymore I just don't go through that much thread. So I've got to use the stash first. Yes, I peek too!:P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meg_marsh Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Congratulations Nora - I agree that their threads are great. Tried my sample pack a while ago and was very pleased. Finally put my first order in just recently - it is in transit as I write this........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
