I have been asked several times this weekend what brand of thread I use for my designs. I have to admit, I usually use whatever brand comes in the color I need for a particular design. But I do have a couple of favorites that I use whenever possible. Since I live in a rural area, it can be difficult to find thread locally, so I usually must order what I need.
I love America's Best, Art. 74p, from Pisgah Yarn and Dyeing Company, which I order here: America's Best
They have a beautiful range of colors, and I love working with it. Check out #50, Plum! And I never let myself run out of #55 Light Green or #323 Mint Green Ombre. In fact, all of their ombre colors are gorgeous!
I also love Royale Classic Crochet Cotton, which I can often find in basic colors locally. For a greater color selection, I order from this site: Royale
They carry my all time favorites, #15 Shaded Pinks and #493 - French Rose and #401 Orchid Pink (can you tell I love pink?)
I have ordered from both of these companies numerous times (in fact I will be placing an order later today.) I have always been pleased with their service and received my orders promptly.
I want to mention that I am not affiliated with these companies in any way, and do not receive any compensation for mentioning them on my blog. I know that color is an important element in all of my designs, and I want you to be able to find the colors you need!
Your work is beautiful, and I enjoyed looking through your site! Thanks for the info on the thread.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the info on the thread. You make beautiful things with thread! I love to use #3 thread 'cause my eyesight isn't what it used to be and my hands aren't either. I love looking at your work though.
