We would LOVE to have you join us for the next enrolment of Thread Matters.
Sign up here and I'll drop you an email when the course is open for enrolment.
I have now completely SOLD OUT of the limited edition Aurifil thread boxes.
I have added a limited number of places priced without the thread box if you still want to do the course. You would just need to buy thread separately from your local shop or use what you already have at home.
" Fantastic course - a must for new and experienced quilters. This is a really detailed course covering not just thread, but needles too. It has given me so much more confidence in exploring different threads. Jo is an excellent teacher and always provides comprehensive instructions and guidance."

"I really found this short course very useful. As always with Jo, there was a mix of reading material, video recordings and live sessions. All extremely instructive and it was so good to have a box of threads of different weights - usually very hard to come by. I learnt a lot and definitely feel much more confident to have a go with different threads"

I've been teaching sewing, patchwork & quilting for over 10 years and I'm excited to help you.
I have absolutely LOVED helping every single one of my customers develop and improve their sewing, patchwork & quilting skills. It's truly rewarding to see students progress and have 'lightbulb moments'.
I love teaching, breaking topics down into bite-sized chunks and making it achievable for all! Since moving most of my teaching online it's been eye opening to realise that most people learn better this way: working at their own pace and having more time to practise; but still getting time with the teacher to ask questions.

Once you’ve paid you’ll be asked to set up a log in. Once that’s done you’ll be able to access the portal. You’ll automatically be emailed a receipt and log in link to my Online Sewing School (Portal), so if you didn’t set up the log in when you paid, you’ll be able to do it using the link.
Yes absolutely! We have people worldwide signing up to our courses. When you purchase with your credit card they will do the conversion for you automatically. I have put a rough estimate of the price in US dollars but this obviously varies day to day and company to company. So if you want an accurate amount then it's best to give your credit card company a call on the day you are purchasing and they can tell you how much it will be. You can also look here.
All of our LIVE sessions are recorded if you can't attend them live due to time difference or other commitments. There are plenty of other places to ask questions inside the course portal :-).
Some security systems are causing a glitch in the system and not registering the click on the Buy button. If this happens you have various option to buy the course: try buying on a different device; contact me to arrange a different payment method; go into your security (e.g. Kaspersky) and allow data collection for this website, that seems to resolve the issue.
Sometimes the technology decides not to do what it should! Very frustrating! Sorry it's happened to you. First of all, just double check your junk/spam folder. Also make sure to add jo@thecraftynomad.co.uk to the Safe Sender list in your email settings. Next go to the Register Page and sign up. Once you are in, you'll be able to click on the My Courses tab at the top. If your enrolment was processed then the class will show up in your courses. If it's not there or you have problems registering then just drop me an email at jo@thecraftynomad.co.uk. It's normally just because of a typo in the email address during sign up.
If you are stuck on a bit that just isn't making sense to you, just pop a comment in the comment box under that lesson. I'll get a notification of it and can pop you an answer in the comments. Keeping it there also helps other people who might be stuck on the same bit. We will also be having a live Q&A session on Zoom for this class where you can ask your questions.
Yes absolutely! You can work through the content when it's convenient to you. Underneath each video lesson there is a question box where you can type in your questions and I will answer them for you. You'll have access to the course material for a minimum of 6 months, but in reality it will be a lot longer than that and will be for as long as I have the website open as I do not put an end date on your access for this course.
First please check to make sure you signed up for an option that includes the thread box. If you did then please be aware that thread boxes will be mailed out using tracked postage towards the end of November/early December. But please allow a little longer than normal for your package to arrive, Christmas slows down delivery. If it hasn't arrived 4 weeks after you booked your place then please email me directly.

Learnt so much
Clearly threads do matter. This course has opened my eyes to so many things to consider regarding threads and needles. Im so glad we can revisit the modules and that they are in bite size chunks which makes it easy to find. Clear handouts that can also be printed. Lovely to be given a small project to have a go at using the different threads knowing that I've got the right needle, the right bobbin thread and the correct tension and stitch size. Thank you Jo.

Very Informative
Who would have thought there would be so much difference in a reel of thread! Never knew about NE numbers or what they meant, been looking at all of mine now to see what they are, I've only just started on the project and I'm looking forward to trying them all out, also great excuse to investigate all the decorative stitches on my sewing maching. I'm also desperate to learn more about FPP. Well done Jo x

Great course!
I learned about different types of threads, needles and how to use them. There was also a project I could use and try out all the different kinds of threads and needles! I tried thick and thin thread and I also for the first time tried a twin needle! I had so much fun and realized that the shine of rayon thread probably makes it one of my favorite ones to ad something special to a project! Thank you Jo for another great course!
Sheila Pitt
Great Course. So much information.
This course has made me think more about the type of thread I can use and when, and also help with the different type of needles. At the end of the course we have a project to try out our new skills and put into practice all we have learnt. I would definitely recommend it
