Nitelite Glow in the Dark thread from Superior Threads |
Glow in the dark thread is the perfect antidote for bleak mid-winter dark nights.
When our kids were small, the quilted glow-in-the-dark stars made bedtimes fun.
This pattern was created with white NiteLite Extra Glow from Superior Threads on black fabric loaded on a New English Quilter frame using a JUKI TL98P straight stitch sewing machine. We found that layering the thread by stitching over the lines a few times made a bolder line of glowing stitches.
My son's girlfriend Jade, is using the thread for an art project for her University course.
Jade wanted to show the process of 'drawing the design' on fabric with a sewing machine on a quilting frame.

Her tutors have been mystified by how Jade has been completing her textile art projects.
We used a black light to get a good effect for the video images.
These still shots are fun too. I'll post the little video clip as soon as Jade edits it together.
