May general meeting / Nina Clotfelter Zoom lecture on thread

May 2026 Nina Clotfelter "Threads - what's the BIG deal?"

From Nina's website:

This is a FUN lecture on all the things you didn't know you needed to know about thread!
As an educator for WonderFil Specialty Threads, Nina has learned a lot and she wants to share!
Thread is like candy!  Sometimes you just can't get enough...LOL!    
When we purchase thread it's usually the color we buy, or the thread the shop carries.  In this lecture you'll learn about the different weights of thread and why they make a difference.  Ply, why is that important?  Specialty threads like metallic, monofilament, tinsel threads, how do we work with them?  Why do metallics give us issues?  This lecture is FULL of information you'll be thrilled you know now!
