"Better than invisible!

As a quiltmaker I want the most professional results possible when I use my surface topstitch piecing techniques on my artwork.  I've found that by far InvsiaFil 100wt thread fits the bill perfectly.  When I use the machine blind-hem stitch, a 70/10 needle and InvisaFil to sew my patches the result is terrific.

InvisaFil has all the desirable qualities I need ... it is very strong for it's light weight and it looks, feels and handles like regular thread ... not to mention the wide variety of colors available.  When I construct a quilt I need to match or blend thread color to the fabric.  I've found that if there isn't an exact color match, that even if I use similar tones or values, the thread blends in perfectly with the fabric color

I only endorse products I love ... and I heartily recommend InvisaFil 100wt ... it is the best of all worlds for a topstitching quilter like me."

"I have been using Konfetti the last few days and thought that I would pass along how much I like it.  It has such a smooth finish and it stitches out so beautifully!"

"I love WonderFil Threads!  Last year I started using InvisaFil 100wt thread for my raw edge silk applique and it is wonderful.  I have taught several classes using my technique and the thread; everyone raves about it.  Since I make mostly garments I have been using InvisaFil for the hand stitching and it just disappears, making me and my work look really good.  Hooray for WonderFil, I'm so glad I found you"

"Accent threads on wool are wonderful.  They float on the fiber instead of sinking in.  My purse won a first prize in a wool contest"

"I have been using and teaching with Wonderfil threads for several years now and absolutely love the whole line of thread!  Especially the InvisaFil and DecoBob for my bobbin thread.  It is a super fine lightweight polyester that just marries beautifully with any weight of rayon or polyester you put on the top.  The fact that you can wind twice as much in your bobbin is such a bonus-as we all hate to stop and wind bobbins!  The bobbin weight threads - Sizzle, Dazzle and Razzle are such fun to play with and always produce wonderful effects for your art quilting.  For cotton that glides through your machine and doesn't pack it full of lint to clean up, the Silco is my favourite choice.  Of course, the best part of telling my students about this thread is the fact that it is manufactured right her in Canada!"

"Regarding Deco-Bob: I've tried every single supposedly thin strong thread out there.  Your thread is absolutely, without a doubt, the best on the market.  Kudos to whomever designed this thread.  I'm hooked."

"Recently I was asked to teach at a sewing confrence in Bowmanville, Ont.  As it is for most sewers I prepared my sample very quickly just hours before the class.  The class was on texturing.  I chopped everything from sequinned spandex to leather and denim, laid them out on a piece of muslin and went to work doing free motion work with Wonderfil Metallic Thread.  One of my customer saw me working full speed and questioned what needle I was using...What tension I was set at....What bobbin thread I was using?  My answer to all her questions were "I don't know"  Till that time I didn't realise that in my haste I did none of the usual adjustments and changes.  The thread did not break or fray once.  I have never sewn with such a wonderful thread.  I subsequently taught Metallic machine embroidery on denim and none of my students had any problem.  I should add that both times I was using Janome Sewing Machines and I'm sure that helped."

"The Konfetti cotton has been an instant hit with our customers! It's economical as well as being a superb cotton thread that we know will provide them with the results they want!  Our customers love the WonderFil™ Rayon thread! We encourage them to add that bit of sheen to their finished quilt, we know they'll love the results!"

"We've been selling Wonderfil threads at Quilting Adventures for just over a year now, and I haven't met a WonderFil thread that I didn't like!  InvisaFil is just amazing - great for bobbin thread, surprising great for hand applique, perfect instead of those nasty nylon "invisable" threads for machine applique.  Konfetti has become my standard piecing thread (almost no lint at all!), and Tutti and Fruitti are honestly delicious.   I love having a 12 wt that has a matching 50 wt to use in the bobbin, and they both have the most wonderful color choices.  And the folks at WonderFil are great to work with, too!  :-)"

"Konfetti thread is so lint free you will be amazed.  Tutti and Fruitti are so much fun to use - the color changes are delightful!  InvisaFil is superb for piecing miniatures. You can not feel it in the seams - a great thing for tiny pieces!"

"I receive my first rack of Invisafil and less than 10 days later I have had to restock 9 of the colors.  It is a wonderfully diverse group that loves this thread ranging from crazy quilt artists to first time quilters that are doing stitch in a ditch!  It slides through the small hand needles and runs like "butter" on the machines.  I am thrilled to have discovered this thread!  Cathy Racine - The Charlton Sewing Center 6/24/2008."
