Nina Clotfelter will present her lecture: Threads- What's the Big Deal: all the things you didn't know you needed to know about thread. As an educator for Wonderfil, Nina has learned a lot and she wants to share! Thread is like candy! Sometimes you just can't get enough! When we purchase thread it's usually the color we buy, or the thread shop carries. In this lecture, you'll learn about the different weights of thread and why they make a difference. Ply, why is that important? Specialty threads like metallic, monofilament, tinsel threads - how do we work with them? Why do metallics give us issues? This lecture is FULL of information you'll be thrilled you know now!
