“I wanted to let you know that, as a longtime subscriber … I remember and refer back to multiple articles once I get rolling on a project. I consider Threads to be my sewing school, and it has been well worth the subscription.”
“I love all issues of Threads and if marooned on an island, this would be the magazine I would want to be with me. It’s a hard trick to come up with something new and inspiring in every issue. Hats off to you.”
