Anything that's FAB! is fair game, and I can't think of a better way to start off than with my fabulous and favorite thread of all time, Aurifil.
I ♥ Aurifil, and it was indeed love at first stitch. Have you tried Aurifil? It's a beautiful, smooth and strong Italian thread that will make a big difference in your sewing! My seams lie so flat (and if they don't, it's an ironing issue- not a thread one!)

12 wt is perfect for embellishment and Sashiko
28 wt is perfect for hand quilting and blanket stitches
40 wt is a machine quilting and embroidery favorite
50 wt is the best thread for piecing and applique
In fact, I just finished a commissioned quilt last week using Aurifil 50 wt. in white.
Oh wait, you want some for your own, don't you?
Well, lovely friends, I have this fab Aurifil Basics Collection with your name on it!
Yes indeed, one of y'all is going to win this box of 12, 50 wt threads! Trust me, you will LOVE them!

I've only ever owned one spool of Aurifil, in white. Haven't used it much, though. Maybe have lots of neutrals will be incentive. Thanks, Jennifer.
Hmm, fabulous... I got flowers from the Mr. for Easter, I love em!
I actually have been quilting for years and never have paid attention to weights of threads, until I recently got my long-arm machine. How embarrassing is that!!! I have always just grabbed whatever....oops! The basic collections sounds lovely!!
Oooh I keep hearing awesome things about this thread, and I really need to try it! Thank you for the chance. :)
I am anxious to try Aurifil thread - my machine is very unhappy with the lint of my current spool - oops!
Loved your quilt. stunning! Have a nice day! :)
I love working with Aurifil threads and hope to win some (I know, a boring comment but it is late and I struggle with your rafflecopter thingy......
I love Aurufil and really hope I win. I'm running low.

I'd love to try these threads out I keep seeing them pop up in blogs all over the place. Thanks for the chance of a giveaway :)
Something fabulous...I dropped 5 pounds last month and can breath in my jeans again and my lilacs are just starting to bloom even the tiny one by the back door that my dog kept mistaking for a fire hydrant and I thought was doomed.

Thank you for the chance to win some of these Magic threads .... I wouldn't use anything else for piecing ... except I just ran out and am ridiculously poor of pocket so have had to go back using up all my old spools! No fun! And I'm really noticing the difference ...

Good Morning, What a nice giveaway you are doing. I love Aurifil thread and love the different shades of blues which I could use. Your quilt is really pretty.

Something fabulous... hmmmm... today I saw the prettiest sunflower cake. The petals were made of Peeps!
I love Aurifil! I always look for a color in the quilt shop that carries these first. Most times, I find the colors I need. I've tried many others that are just icky.
what a lovely giveaway! I've yet to try them.
I have had plans to start trying better threads for awhile - better for my machine, my fabric, etc... this set would be the perfect way to get me to start! Thanks for the giveaway!
I am having a fabulous Tues after a long Easter weekend! I run a daycare & I missed my kids! They are all excited about what the easter bunny brought them!

I would love to try this thread. Pretty quilt. Thanks for the giveaway.
Ive never used Aurifil, and i have to say that im getting more and more interested in it. I usually only buy locally, but as my local shop doesnt carry it, i might have to either WIN IT (lol) or venture into an online store. Thanks for the post!
Aurifil is wonderful!
I've never used it, but I have heard many many bloggers rave about it. I'm pretty sure no one around me sells it. Thanks for the chance to win!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Haven't had the opportunity to use this thread yet, but would love to try!!
You are so right about the super flat seams with Aurifil 50w. I love using a nice medium gray thread because I can use it on both light and dark fabric! Would be thrilled to win your giveaway!
I'd love to try Aurifil. It looks like fabulous thread.
I so want to try Aurifil. I've only have local access to Coats & Clark at the moment!
I piece and quilt exclusively with Aurifil.
I would love to add to my Aurifil stash!
I, too, love Aurifil threads! And you are very right about thread making a difference in the way a seam lays. If you use quality thread, Aurifil, you will always get wonderful results. Thanks for the chance to win!
another fantastic giveaway!!
Fabulous would be winning these! I've never used anything but Coats and Clark before! christina112358 at gmail dot com

That would be a wonderful addition to my little Aurifil collection - I started sewing with it and now it's hard to put anything else on my machine.
What a fun giveaway. Beautiful Aurifil collection.

FAB Aurafil thread! Hope I win!
Thank you for the awesome opportunity! Aurifil is on my list to try out with machine piecing and quilting...I am so tired of the over-enthusiastic dust bunnies I end up with currently!
I'm about to try my first spool of aurifil!
I really want to try some Aurifil...have heard such wonderful things!
I haven't tried Aurifil, but keep saying that I want to. Winning would be the perfect way to start,right? :-)
I just got a brand new embroidery machine - I'd love to try out Aurifil for machine embroidery. I've tried FMQing with it, and piecing is magic with the 50wt!
I just finished my second twin size quilt on my little home machine! Woohoo!
Thanks for the chance to win!
This thread needs to get in my machine NOW! Thank you for the opportunity to dream.
I sometimes think I'd rather buy aurafil than fabric. I'm expanding my palette from gray/neutral to EVERYTHING. I'm definitely an aurafil hoarder.

I've never tried Aurifil. Would love to have a chance!
Beautiful Thread! Thanks for the chance to win!
Would LOVE to try this thread. Thanks!
I have never used aurifil but I would LOVE to try it - that would be fabulous! The absolute most FAB thing I can think of are my two boys - love them! They are fabulous!
I have never used this thread. It sounds so great. Crossing my fingers. :)
I finally decided to give Aurifil thread a try and love it!

I haven't tried this thread, but it is all the rage and I would love to!
That thread is fabulous!! :) Would love to add a few more spots to my collection!
I've owned one spool of Aurifil by "accident", I bought it not knowing what it was. I loved it. I need to buy more but usually buy thread on the fly when I need it desperately. I need to plan ahead.
I would love to win, I have never tried Aurifil, but I know it is amazing thread
Can't miss the opportunity, I have yet to try Aurifil.
Thank you for the opportunity. I would be excited to try a new kind of thread!
So pretty!
I sewed with Aurifil 50w Mako cotton for the first time a couple days ago, and it was great. It does give off a little lint, but the thread is thin and strong and lies flat. I did a side by side test with Aurifil and the Coats & Clark that I normally use, and the Aurifil looked much better. I would love to win this giveaway - thank you for the chance.
SPRING IS HERE !
THAT'S FABULOUS!
THANKS FOR SHARING!

I have only tried the 50wt, which I LOVE, and use exclusively for piecing. I'd love a chance to try the other weights.
I've been wanting to try Aurifil so bad. I've been having trouble with the Gutterman I can pick up at Jo-Ann's.
Thank you so much Jennifer for the chance to try it out - I haven't taken the plunge yet, but I would love to and have hopes in the future to get on the Aurifil bandwagon. :)
This an amazing giveaway!
Awesome giveaway, I've been really wanting to try some Aurifil!
Tell you something fabulous? Let's see . . . I'll finish the last of my granny square blocks today. That's pretty fabulous in my little world!
I keep hearing a ton about Aurifil. I really should try it one of these days. It said you tell you something fabulous, so how about I just tell ya that you're fabulous?! :)
Thanks Jenn!

Love Aurifil! But have only ever gotten to play with the one weight at my local LQS.
Thanks for the giveaway - the thread sounds great!
I tried Aurifil once and fell in love. It is my favorite thread. I would love to win this Aurifil Basics Collection. I use 50 wt for all my piecing and quilting. I also use the 12 wt for embroidery. Thank you for the chance to win.
I love Aurifil thread. I use the 50 wt in all my quilts if I can find the thread. No one sells it around where I live so it is hard to match up colors online. Thanks so much for a chance to win this collection!
Something fabulous? Hmmm. This is pretty fabulous to me: I'm getting ready to graduate with my masters in counseling! It's taken me 5 years, and I'm so excited!
I love quilting notions, so I'm really excited about your FAB series! I also love Aurifil -- it's the only thread I use now. :) Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm such a geek, I've never used Aurifil thread before. Would love to give it a try!
I've been wanting to try Aurifil for the longest time--hope this is my opportunity! :)
FABulous home sewn is the name of my blog---isn't that fabulous? :)
I use aurafil thread for my quilts and love it! awolk at rogers dot com
Ooh, fab giveaway indeed, thank you!
Had not heard of this brand of thread before, but now I am intrigued.
Thanks Jen - I have never used Aurifil but I would love to own some. Thanks so much and your series looks a whole lotta fun!
I've been wanting to try Aurifil for ages; but never see it here. I'm in New Brunswick,Canada; maybe we don't carry it, or I have just not looked in the right places...lol
thanks for the opportunity.
Spring is in the air and it's fabulous! Never tried Aurifil, but will have to if I don't win :)
Thanks for hosting the FAB-ulous giveaway.
I'm having a dumb day, I don't see what the other two options to enter are. But it's a fab giveaway...thanks for the chance to win!
I have never tried Aurifil - but I would love to try!
What a great chance to win something so useful!! And it won't take up too much room either.
Rafflecopter hates me and wouldn't let me leave a comment about something fabulous! So I'm hear to tell you that I've got a bag of Maltesers in my fridge calling my name - few things are more fabulous than that!!
i have heard such good things about aurifil, but haven't had a chance to try it yet & i'd love to :)
I would totally love to win this! I've heard so many great things about Aurifil. It would be awesome to win some to get to try it out for myself.
I love the picture of the thread all lines up. Gorgeous colors!
