Description

Bring brilliant color and beautifully smooth stitching to your next project with Glide™ Thread. Manufactured by Fil-Tec, Glide has earned a loyal following among quilters and machine embroiderers thanks to its exceptional sheen, vibrant colors, and impressively low-lint performance.

Best For:

  • Machine embroidery
  • Machine quilting
  • Decorative stitching
  • Appliqué

Made from trilobal polyester, Glide's unique three-sided fiber shape reflects light more effectively than traditional round fibers. The result is rich, vibrant color with a beautiful, silky sheen that makes embroidery and decorative stitching stand out.

Another feature sewists love is Glide's low-lint construction. As thread passes through your machine, tiny fibers naturally shed and can accumulate around the bobbin area and tension system. Glide is engineered to produce significantly less lint than many traditional threads, helping keep your machine cleaner during long sewing sessions.

Fil-Tec refers to this as a Mini Spool, but don't let the name fool you. Each slim-profile spool contains an impressive 1,000 meters (approximately 1,093 yards) of thread, offering outstanding value while taking up less storage space than larger cone-style spools.

FAQ'S

Are your fabrics sold by the yard or half yard?

Everything's sold by the yard with a few exceptions.  Certain Ribbing & Quilting Cottons are sold by the half yard (but this is stated in the title). 

What is your order processing time?

As of Feb 20th, we're zipping through orders in 2-4 business days! 🚀 Please be patient with fabric bundles though, these do take us just a little be longer since they are curated specially for you.

Just a heads up, though - during the holiday frenzy or after a mega sale like Black Friday, it might take up to 10 business days. We're on it, though, aiming to get those gorgeous fabrics in your hands within 5 days!

Do you Combine Shipping?

Absolutely! Place any orders within 3 business days of each other, and we'll snug them together. If they're further apart, just shoot us an email at bohofabrics@gmail.com, and we'll see what we can do. Any shipping overages will come back to you as a Boho Giftcard. 🎁

Do you Refund Shipping Overages?

Great News!  We now offer FREE SHIPPING for all orders over $175 within the Contiguous USA!  If your order is less than $175, we offer flat rate shipping for $12.95.  Due to our new Flat Rate Shipping policy, we do not refund shipping overages.  

Can I cancel my order?

You bet, as long as we haven't printed that shipping label. We'll refund your order minus a 5% fee.

How much is Shipping?

For orders over $175, shipping's on us within the Contiguous USA! Orders under $175 have a flat rate of $12.95. Really big orders might need to bypass PO Boxes and head straight to a traditional address via UPS or FedEx.

*Excludes Shipping to PO Boxes, Alaska, Hawaii & Puerto Rico. Shipping overages will be invoiced to customers for packages being shipped to those regions.

What is your Return Policy?

Gotcha covered! If the fabric isn't quite what you envisioned, send it back within 14 days of receiving it, uncut and unwashed, for a refund

Please note that shipping costs are non-refundable as this is a cost incurred and not refunded to us by the carriers.

We recommend obtaining tracking for any returns you send as well as sending us an email so that we can be on alert for the package (and to process your return faster!)

Please send returns to:
