The included Designer's Gallery of thread projects provides inspiration with ideas for quilts, a thread sampler, fabric journal, framed heart, and more.

Record your stitch travels by creating your personal "Passport"—a stitching book of practice pages you make as you experiment and build skills with each new technique. You'll find inspiration on every page, along with the step-by-step instructions you need for success, inside Threads: The Basics and Beyond!
