Posted as a giveaway on March 16, 2010 here on the IHAN blog
I think the "Be You" Isacord Thread Collection" would be fun with this as well. With all this silk and thread....I'm thinking St. Peter is going to be asking some questions at the pearly gates soon....I'm seeing a bright light in the distance....(just kidding).
I don't have an embroidery machine but I have used Isacord thread with some of my punchneedle projects. I really like the shine and color...it gives a piece some pop.
Darlene has an embroidery machine and this is what she has to say about Isacord thread:
Kelly,
I just wanted to let you know how happy I am that you carry Isacord threads. I have been using Isacord thread for machine embroidery for many years, and in recent years have even been using it for machine quilting. It is a high quality thread that comes in a variety of colors. But I love how easy it is to work with and how well it holds up. I highly too recommend Isacord thread!
Darlene aka SewCalGal
These are some samples of machine embroidery using Isacord thread. (bottom is unfinished....but it was so pretty I could not resist posting it)
I think these are cheerful, don't you?
Isacord is the thread of choice for maximum productivity and the highest quality embroidery among the largest embroidery houses. At nearly twice the strength of rayon thread, Isacord is the smoothest running and most reliable polyester thread produced. It has been engineered from the finest raw materials to provide just the right amount of elasticity to allow for high speed running without looping or puckering while virtually eliminating thread breaks. Isacord is available in 1,000 and 5,000 meter mini-kingspools featuring a unique snap down base for clean and easy storage
Thanks to Brewer Quilting and Sewing one lucky IHAN blog reader will win the "Be You Isacord Thread Collection." To enter to win you must leave a comment on this post (click on the red "Please Comment Here" below this post) telling us why you think you should win this incredible thread collection.

I don't have an embroidery machine, but I can see using that delightful thread with the decorative stitches on my machine to make a "crazy" quilt.
ReplyDeleteI think I should win because I know how to spell "Sheer Delight"
*I*S*A*C*O*R*D T*H*R*E*A*D
mmmmmmm Yep that is how you spell it, especially if it is a PRIZE from IHAN (and that is how you spell 'fun' I*H*A*N )
Now send me that thread!!! (((puh-leeeesse)
That is beautiful thread and I love all the colors. I love the little tin box! How fun! I hope I win!
ReplyDeleteI have just started thread painting, and this thread looks divine!
ReplyDeleteI've never used Isacord, but I've heard it recommended by several different people. I'd love to win this one!
ReplyDeleteI have been experimenting with free motion quilting with regular thread, and it keeps breaking, it is so frustrating! A friend told me she uses Isacord thread, and hasn't had that problem since! I wish I could give it a try!
ReplyDeleteI have heard this is wonderful thread and this would be the perfect opportunity to try it.
ReplyDeleteHow awesome to win this!
ReplyDeletePlease pick me!!♥
ReplyDeleteI have wanted to try this thread and I think my girlfriends would like to "help" me try it! :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI do love Isacord thread. While I'm really happy to see so many people excited to win it, I do wish more people realized Isacord is a wonderful thread and has more uses than just machine embroidery. I really do love to use it for free hand machine quilting and decorative stitching, in general. Lovely thread. In fact, I'm working on decorating some table runners for Easter using Isacord!

I should win this because I haven't won anything else so far and I'm beginning to feel like "loser" instead of "not a winner" if you catch my drift.
ReplyDeleteBut, on the off chance that I have actually won something, then you should give it to Gene Black because that guy is REALLY wanting it. And, he knows the correct way to spell fun (wink,wink)!!♥
Lovely thread and the lucky winner will be in 7th heaven. Which would be great if it were me but if not me I agree Gene should get it, his post is witty!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYummy, yummy threads and colors.
ReplyDeleteI too do not have an embroidery machine but I have done some free motion accenting on my pictorial wall hangings. As usually another great give-away.

I think I should win bz I haven't done any machine embroidery in a few years and this thread would inspire me to get back into doing it! The colors are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely luscious colors! I need to win so that I can try this thread. I am looking for a wonderful line of thread that I can fill my thread holder with. I have an old wooden card catalog from a library and I plan to organize by thread color. These would get me started!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful thread! My husband is building me a gigantic thread holder and winning this thread would help fill it up. I'd love to use it on my projects.
ReplyDeleteHi and greetings from Western Australia. I should win this because the colours are so different to what I would usually use and then I would be forced to 'step out of my comfort zone' and try something really different. They do look great. Thanks to you, Kelly, and all the companies for making this possible. Sam (Sandra) s.downes@murdoch.edu.au
ReplyDeleteApparently I'm supposed to use Isacord in my embroidery machine but haven't found it anywhere locally yet! I'd love to win it!!
ReplyDeleteThese colors are fantastic. I do a lot of machine embroidery and could certainly put this prize to very good use!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win this prize, as these colors are quite outside my normal palette .. it would be a great way to expand my color choices without agonizing over *every single color*!
ReplyDeleteKelly I use this thread on my embroidery machine and it is divine. Thank you for the chance to win more. I run out quite often.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win this beautiful thread...I've never used Isacord, but would love to try it!
ReplyDeletei have an embroidery machine and would love to have these threads...
ReplyDeleteI love the colors! Really would like to give this thread a try.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I use quite a bit of Isacord thread on my quilting machine. I haven't used it to embroider yet but maybe that is why I need to win this.
ReplyDeleteI have been eying that particular button on your sidebar for a while and thinking "Maybe! Maybe!" and, at last, my wish comes true. Honestly, I have never embroidered in my life (by machine), but I can learn. I am teachable. I am eager. I really want that collection.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful thread! I am imagining the possibilities.
ReplyDeletelcloos@epix.net
I think I should win this thread because my quilts could turn into cinderella creations with magnificent thread like this!
ReplyDeleteI've been patiently waiting and watching for "that" something special to my heart.
ReplyDeleteOkay, THIS is it! I LOVE Isacord. It is the ONLY thread I use to embroider. And I LOVE how it works when sewing fancy stitches. I often wonder why more people don't use it for that "punch" they want to achieve when adding embellishing stitches.
Isacord is the thread of choice for me...period.
I would love to win this collection of threads. That way I can play and create to my heart's content. Thank you. Take care and God bless, Cory
ReplyDeleteI think I should win because I LOVE quilting with Isocord and I LOVE these colors...these are all the ones I do not have and would look sooooo great with my projects. Thanks for this loveley gift!
ReplyDeleteShelly.potter(at)hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI think I should win this thread because I"m a novice sewer and this would be soooo fun to play with!

ReplyDeleteYummy!! I love thread and I love love love those colors! Fabulous giveaways!
ReplyDeleteI love Isacord thread... these colors are great.
ReplyDeleteIsacord thread is my favorite for use in my embroidery machine. The quality of the thread and the colors are the best. I would love to win these because I need more thread! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI need to win this thread because after I win the Dupioni silk I'll need the thread to finish the Sarah Vedler Hearts quilt!:)

ReplyDeleteKate
I love the "Hearts" by Sarah Vedeler Designs, quilt. It is so beautiful, I may have to make it ! I'd love to win the give away too. The blog is great, heaps of interesting information, congrats on your 1st Year.
ReplyDeleteI am new to machine embroidery and I have heard that like anything else you make the end product is only as good as the supplies you use to make it. My husband and I are on a limited income and I would love to see the difference that the Isacore thread makes. pamspinks.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteMy Mama needs a new pair of ....threads.... Guess my rap is really bad.
ReplyDeleteShe wants to make a crazy quilt and could use this nice rayon thread for her decorative stitches and embroidery. I would enjoy surprising her with this thread.
I have not seen this thread locally, but it looks terrific. I would use it in my embroidery machine, but I would like to try it with my machine quilting, also. I think it would be lovely to thread paint with.

Would love to win your give away - would use it to quilt. One of the groups that I read regularly - indicated they use quilting thread - so would try it there. Take care and happy Easter and quilting. Robert in northern Iowa.

The tread looks fantastic, and it would be great to be the lucky one. So why not me? I have never used it before; I need to try it.
ReplyDeleteIt would be good for me to win so I don't keep drooling over the picture - I don't have any bibs my size. Kate in sunny Colorado
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love using the Isacord in my embroidery machine, but haven't thought of using it for quilting. It has so little breaking problems. I think I should give it a try.
ReplyDeleteThe marketing folks who named the colors were spot on-- especially the lima bean color... I "sew" get it (I know, trite play on words).
ReplyDeleteI used to work in marketing, but I didn't get to do fun stuff, like name colors... so if I had it could live vicariously through the Isacord color namers. How's that?
I don't have an embroidery machine, but I have used Isacord thread for machine quilting and is GREAT:) It is my favorite thread and my machine loves it too:) Oh I would love to have this collection and did I mention my machine would love it also:) Thanks! Jenna Louise
ReplyDeleteoh I love the bright colors. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI would love this thread to be able to play around with some new quilting and embroidery techniques with my mom.
ReplyDeleteThanks!

I love to embroider t-shirts with Isacord and would love to add some new colors to my collection!
ReplyDelete-Tess (tess0516@verizon.net)
wow I just love the very bright colours!
ReplyDeleteI'm new into quilting and experimenting with the different threads to see which one I like.
ReplyDeleteUm, wow. I mean, WOW.
ReplyDeleteI have only used a few of the decorative embroidery stitches on my machine. Lately, my daughter has been eyeing them and wondering out loud how they would look on something I made for her .... so I know what my first project with these would be!
ReplyDeleteI recently purchased an embroidery machine, and I have used Isacord thread in quilting. I would be thrilled to have this thread collection to use.
ReplyDeleteI'm jumping up and down and waving over here trying to catch your attention!!! I collect tins! I've GOT to have the tin. ;o) I don't collect tins...The threads are gorgeous. I've got to have them to go with the Dupioni silk I'm going to win.
ReplyDeleteYou can never have too much thread, right? I don't have an embroidery machine, but I'd love to try using this for machine quilting!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this collection because it is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to try out new threads for topquilting and embelishing/playing, and I've never heard of this thread before (live in a small town with no LQS). Looks like it would be a wonderful thread to try - please count me in!! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this awesome thread collection. I have been wanting to try some new brands for a while and this would be a great way for me try them. thank you for the generous prize.

ReplyDeleteI think I should win, because, darn it, I WANT THEM! lol

I'm havig so much fun free motion quilting and thread painting these days that a supply of thread would be wonderful!

ReplyDeleteThread thread thread: yes! Need it. Want it. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteOh oh, Pick Me Pick Me!! (Hand waving wildly in the air!). I have had an embroidery machine for...about 10 years now (wow I hadn't realized it had been that long)! I have been running out of thread colors left and right. I'm also going to school right now and so that is where my money is going to instead of replenishing my thread stock! (I know my priorities are skewed). This would be oh so nice to receive! ;)

Boy would I love to win the Iscord thread collection. My new Bernina 630 tells you which color of Iscord thread to use on your embroidery projects.
ReplyDeletemjequilt@ptd.net
As a beginner, I have concentrated on collecting fabrics... but am sadly lacking in having the threads to go with it!
ReplyDeleteThe threads are amazing. Would love to win this
ReplyDeleteI think I would be a good choice because I embroider with their threads and would love a lovely color palette freebie. I'm intrigued by your trying it with punch needle, did you use 2 strands?
ReplyDeleteI adore isacord thread and it is the only thread I will use for machine embroidery....I deserve to win it because I am a loyal user and I need these colors!
ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about this thread, never used it, and I embroider with my sewing machine so it would be perfect for me and I'd have lots of colors
ReplyDeleteI've never used Isacord thread, and would love to use it for my quilting and I also have an embroidery machine that doesn't like certain thread brands, so this would be wonderful.
ReplyDeleteIt's not so much I would love to win this thread as I NEED to win this thread.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like little jewels of thread...all bundled up and ready to play with.
I've been reading about using this type of thread in paper crafting and I'd be very interested in trying it against black paper.
I think it would be amazing.
Thanks for the chance.
I am a thread junkie and would love to win this collection of Isacord thread! I believe it would be the first time using it for me and I would love the opportunity to try it!
ReplyDeleteI want to win this thread to use on my quilts
ReplyDeleteI would love to try this thread, new for me, in quilting and punchneedle work.
ReplyDeleteI know a perfect place to put this great product-in my sewing room. Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteI love using various threads in my quilting and this collection looks great!

I am a machine quilter and would love to try Isacord thread for quilting, I know other quilters who say it is the best and they love it so I would love to try all these lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteAnn
I'd love to give it a try, I'm always testing different threads to quilt I haven't tried yet, I love the colors and the shades!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the thread as I love Sarahs heart quilt and would love to make one.
ReplyDeleteWhat sewer doesn't need good thread? I don't have much in my stash yet, but this would be a great way to fix that!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this thread. I do have an embroidery module and always need pretty thread. Thank you so much for your wonderful give aways.
ReplyDeleteThis thread collection would help me explore embroidery on my machine.
ReplyDeleteI do machine embroidery as well as quilt ... Isacord is a great thread would love to win ... I have used it as machine quilting thread, its very good actually if you have a machine on a frame such a the Grace frame...it rarely breaks!! Which is great!
ReplyDeleteWow - great colors and many great thread qualities. I can see lots of possibilities for the Isacord Thread. It might get used up quilting and punch needling and embellishing before I get my embroidery machine...
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelly and Brewer! You Be a colorful Day 19!
I'd really like to win this,
ReplyDeletefor my embroidery machine I bought.
It's sitting all by it's lonesome,
so far it's all for naught.
But if I win some Isacord thread,
my Brother machine I'd use!
I'll make all kinds of pretty things,
with all their pretty hues.
I've been reading about Isacord for years, but can't buy everything, so this would be a great opportunity to try it out!
ReplyDeleteI think I should win this because... because... because... I WANT IT!! LOL! I do a lot of machine applique in my quilting and I find that using embroidery thread works really well. These colors are AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteThese giveaways are crazy!!! Thanks for doing this!
I would love to win this because of all the bright beautiful colors that say summer is almost here.
