After the success of Thread Labs 1.0 in 2023 I am thrilled that Aurifil are back to offer us another six months of thread, education and loads of fun.
Aurifil have put together another amazing 6 month subscription which will include not only a collection of different threads, but all the knowledge, tuition and inspiration to be able to use those threads confidently. You will learn so much through this programme that I for one cannot wait for July to come around once again.
Whether you took part in Thread Labs or not then there is something for everyone here. A totally new program of projects and educators. Wait until you see the list!
Here is a little intro from Aurifil…
Aurifil are excited to announce the launch of Thread Labs 2.0, the sophisticated successor to the inaugural educational subscription. Building upon the foundational knowledge provided in 2023, the 2024 program will offer an intriguing exploration of techniques and applications, guided by a distinguished team of educators.
From July to December, participants will engage in an immersive learning experience, covering a diverse range of skills from FPP to Machine Quilting, through the practical use of various Aurifil thread weights.
The first lab, Lab 2.1, grants early access to the Aurifilosophy Cool Thread Exemplar, a compact spool storage case, and a unique thread tracking booklet.
Aurifil Designer Nicholas Ball will lead you through a creative project that utilizes several thread weights included in the Thread Exemplar, while tutoring via exclusive video content to ensure a comprehensive learning experience for all proficiency levels.
Subsequent labs will introduce new educators, thread assortments, and innovative techniques, fostering an environment where creativity and skill development flourish.
