Simple Supplies to Tie a Quilt

• Pearl Cotton Thread No. 8 (this can actually be as thick as you want. You could even use yarn, similar to how classic tied quilts are made. I used this kind of thread because it is what I prefer to use when hand quilting.)
• Embroidery Needle.
• Needle Threader (optional but awesome)
• Snips.
