Sep 25, 2023

North American thread, sewing and crafting specialists Valdani have new hand-dyed colorfast thread and floss that has been designed and made just for crazy quilting.

Edmonton, Canada - September 25, 2023 /PressCable/ —

The thread makers now have both classic 100% long-staple natural Egyptian perle cotton thread and new embroidery and punch-needle floss that can be used by crazy quilters who are looking to create different finishes, styles and textures in their work. As craft, sewing and thread specialists, Valdani knows that aside from literally keeping a project together, thread also visually unifies and completes a project. This is why they are proud to now be making both their perle cotton and new punch-needle floss in vivid and deeply colored hand-dyed and colorfast threads.

Valdani is jumping on the crazy quilting patchwork trend as it becomes more popular amongst American crafting communities, especially amongst new Millennial-aged quilters who are often approaching the craft from both a sustainable and nostalgic perspective. Valdani knows that when the fabric and prints of a quilt are ‘crazy’, a quilter needs an array of thread and floss types to both do the practical work of joining the fabric pieces and the aesthetic work of making the patterns come alive, perhaps by also doing embroidered accents.

Valdani’s new embroidery and punch-needle floss comes in 3-strand balls, for finer projects, and 6-strand skeins for heavier projects. Likewise, their classic perle cotton threads come in a fine, medium and heavy-weight thread to help sewists complete any type of project.

In addition to making their colorfast threads using innovative natural hand-dying techniques, Valdani is also innovating with new colors. As such, quilters and sewists can now choose from over 150 new solid colors and over 170 new variegated colors. With their variegated range, the thread makers have also given special attention to the joining and transition points between the colors.

Valdani stocks their floss and thread in sewing chains and boutiques across the country, and interested shoppers can now also buy their products directly from their online store.

One happy shopper said, “I love Valdani threads and have been using them since I first discovered the 35-weight quilting thread in a little shop in St. Helen’s Oregon about a decade ago. They make luscious variegated threads in color combinations you just don’t see elsewhere, like one blend they called Cold Lava—a blend of black, sapphire blue and a rich rust color that quilts up beautifully.”

Saclag enters MMA finals, eyes PH’s first Asiad gold

JEAN Claude Saclag got himself and the Philippines a shot at a gold medal after advancing to the 20th Asian Games mixed martial arts men's traditional -65kg final at the Nagoya City Inae Sports Center in Japan on Monday. Saclag topped home bet Daisuke Murayama, 3-0, in the semifinals to secure at least a silver medal in MMA's debut in the Asiad. The Filipino bet faces Otabek Rajabov of Tajikistan in the final on Tuesday at 1:20 p.m. in Manila. "I'm used to competing in the finals but I'm more inspired because Asian Games is different," said Saclag in an interview with One Sports. "I need to hit him (Rajabov) while also maintaining my distance and keeping him from doing his takedowns because he's good at it. If we could do that, then we'll going to win," added Saclag, who also fights in ONE FC. The 31-year-old Saclag first defeated Saud Fawaz Almolhem, 3-0, in the quarterfinals. Saclag's teammate Carlos Alvarez settled for a bronze medal finish after falling to Yerkingali Burkutalin of Kazakhstan in the men's traditional -77kg semifinals, 0-3.

Sanchez's teammate Teia Salvino also reached the 50-m backstroke final as the 10th placer with 29.14 seconds in the preliminary round. Xiandi Chua likewise made the final in the women's 200-m individual medley, clocking 2:16.24 in the preliminaries. Meanwhile, Yulo brothers Carlos and Eldrew finished first and second in the men's artistic gymnastics individual all-around subdivision 1 at the Nagoya City General Gymnasium Rainbow Hall. Gymnasts in subdivision 2 were still performing at press time. A 2-time Olympic champ, Carlos posted a total of 77.264 points while Eldrew logged 75.465 in the individual all-around that doubles as qualification to individual apparatus. The top eight in each apparatus advance to the final with a limit to two gymnasts per country. "Caloy" anchored his performance with his specialty, scoring 14.300 in vault and and 13.966 in floor exercise — the same events he ruled at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Caloy logged 11.733 points in pommel horse, 11.666 in rings, 12.166 in parallel bars, and 13.433 in horizontal bar. Eldrew unleashed a 14.600 performance in floor exercise while amassing 8.233 in pommel horse, 13.500 in rings, 13.166 in vault, 14.266 in parallel bars, and 11.700 in horizontal bar.

Tabanas carries PH youth to Taiwan

SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD Isabella Tabanas gets her first taste of professional golf when she joins fellow ICTSI-backed amateurs Lisa and Mona Sarines in the Kenda Tire Cup, which gets under way Wednesday at the Taichung International Country Club in Taichung, Taiwan. The NT$4-million championship, the 16th leg of the LPGA of Taiwan Tour, is co-sanctioned by the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour and brings together the leading players from the LPGT and a strong international field. For Tabanas, however, the 54-hole event represents more than just another tournament — it marks her maiden appearance on the TLPGA, giving the promising Cagayan de Oro junior an early opportunity to test her game against seasoned professionals and top amateurs from across Asia. Tabanas, who has committed to play collegiate golf for Texas A&M University-Kingsville, is the latest addition to ICTSI’s growing stable of young players being given assistance and international exposure as part of a long-term program aimed at developing golfers capable of competing on the world stage. She will be joined by the Sarines twins, Lisa and Mona, who are also regarded as among the promising young talents in Philippine golf. The sisters have made early strides as junior golfers, gaining valuable experience in local and international competitions and steadily building the credentials that have marked them as potential future players on the LPGT. The three youngsters will have plenty to learn from the seasoned Filipina pros in the field, led by ICTSI-backed Yvon Bisera and Princess Superal, and Harmie Constantino, while also getting a firsthand look at the level required to compete successfully on the professional circuit. Kiara Montebon, 20, is also on the ICTSI roster. An incoming Biology junior, she competes for Chicago State University in US NCAA Division I. Tabanas hails from Cagayan de Oro and regularly plays at Del Monte Golf Club and Pueblo de Oro. She has competed in several tournaments in the United States since 2023 and continued her rise with a successful campaign in the FCG Collegiate Series Spring Classic at Pala Mesa Resort in Fallbrook, California last April. She heads into her first TLPGA tournament with enthusiasm and a clear development goal, hoping to sharpen her short game and improve her recovery shots around the green. Her presence, together with that of the Sarines twins, underscores the continuing push to give the country’s next generation of golfers meaningful exposure beyond junior competition.
