Silk Classic has arrived at the Bristly
Thistleall 180 colors! We sampled this
silky thread at market this January and fell
in love with it. The colors are wonderful,
it stitches smooth as silk and you use one
strand as-is on 18 mesh canvas (no laying
tool needed). This new thread is very popular
and we carry it in Florida too! |
