After some searching online looking for some Sue Spargo Wonderfil threads, I ended up phoning Mill Rose cottage and ordering some new threads. My package arrived last week!

New threads!
I have been wanting to try some new sashiko patterns, and ordered a new set of stencils a few weeks ago. I traced off the Asanoha pattern and started stitching it in grey, but decided I really wanted a variegated green thread.
Look at these lovely colours -
I had noted down a couple of colours I liked, but found so many on line - some had numbers, some had names. The staff member at Mill Rose explained that there are new colours released every year, hence such a huge range. I described the colours I wanted, and they had 3, but I ended up having to put my faith in my description & the staff member's choice for me! Luckily they are all pretty much what I had in mind. Will have to trace off some new designs once I finish my current project. The variegated green is just right.

Happy stitching with those lovely threads! Online shopping is like getting birthday gifts all year.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Look forward to seeing the colours come through your stitching.
ReplyDeleteI will get round to working out how many squares from a shirt! Am a little side tracked at the moment!
