Aurifil Collections - January 2025 Artisan Challenge

Aurifil Collections - January 2025 Artisan Challenge

This month Aurifil challenged Artisans to dive into the vibrant world of Aurifil threads by showcasing an Aurifil collection box.

I immediately reached for the Untamed collection as it hits all of my “must haves” in a thread collection!

🧵 Curated collection SPECIFICALLY made to match a fabric collection that makes me swoon - check and check! 

Untamed by Tula Pink has me staying warm, inspired, and just point blank HAPPY to have the opportunity to create. 

🧵 This 50wt 12-spool collection is the PERFECT combination of warm and cool - it hits the brightest spots of neon pink, orange, and yellows-lime to the super rich and saturated deepest of purples, and a harmonious rainbow in between.

50wt is my go-to choice for machine and hand work, and I used both techniques from one box of thread in these projects.

🧵I love a collection of threads that challenge me to texturize all of the details in a fabric I love - it’s the cherry on top!

This box is an outstanding compliment with some less saturated neutrals for piecing, construction, and quilting.

 

These bags are great for traveling and teaching this year, and provides an close up opportunity to inspire how it all comes together in the end.

 

 

The perfect ingredients for joyful, beautiful, and functional projects.

Thank you Aurifil for another great challenge to get creative!
