You need to capture the exception within the thread itself, and "transfer" the exception to the main thread.

Wrap your thread code in try...except, grab the exception, and stuff it inside a variable that the main thread can see. The main thread should be looping + idling, and when the main thread sees that variable contains an exception, reraise the exception.
