Bonnie H Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 I'm selling (32) Glide No. 40 Polyester thread 5000m cones as I just don't care for it. Most of these cones are unused, though they are open as I like to unwind and lay the strand of thread across the quilt when picking my color thread to quilt. There are five cones that are approximately 1/4 to 1/3 used. I would like to sell them all as a group for $140 plus half of the shipping cost. I would roughly estimate your half at about $15 to $20, depending on how far you are from 93274. This is about $5 a cone. Please contact me at blhutcherson@sbcglobal.net Used: Khaki Linen Cream Warm Grey 4 Blaze Unopened: Blossom Rhododendrum Strawberry Blonde Opened but unused: Lemon Ice Mulberry Burnt Orange Mango Key Lime Cardinal Aloe Rust Pink Light Tan Candy Apple Black White Cool Grey 3 Cornflower Celery Peppermint Dark Aqua Peacock Sea Foam Violet Tangerine Cantaloupe Prickly Pear Thanks for looking!

Bonnie H Posted May 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Just the way it looks on the quilt.Though I have seem some beautiful quilting with Glide so maybe it is just MY quilting that I'm not liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimerickson Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Laura: I bought some of the Sigma thread Metro had/has (I don't know if the sale is still on) for $2.40 a 5000M cone last week. It seems to perform very similar to Glide. They also had their entire set of 150 colors in 1000 M cones on sale for $115. That's less that $0.80 a cone. If you want to see them all, and don't think you'd need more than that amount for any project, that might be worth buying. My wife bought the set, when it was delivered, I looked at it, and picked out 13 colors that I wanted, and ordered the 5000 M cones. It is made in China, and that might affect your decision.

Bonnie H Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 oh darn, Marci. I wish I could clone the cones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamu Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Thanks Jim, that's a good idea...get the smaller cones and then decide which colors you like best and order the larger ones. I do have some Metro thread and have used it...will check this out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
