Also got some threads that I was dieing to try. They're called King Tut Quilting Thread and they come in 500 yds spools for $5.99 per spool. Also comes in 2000 yds spools for $18.99 The size is between a #80 and #100. I haven't tat usuing it alone. The butterflies I made I used some scraps of the Star #30 I had in a shuttle. I like to make this technique of mixing 2 sizes to obtain a "faux mignonette" like I call it. It's my favorite thing to play with.
The color numbers from left to right are #916, 935 and 925. I can't remember the color's names but all of them are things Egyptian related.
I got it from Sewing Thread Online. The thread is 100% Egyptian cotton. I wonder why I can't find this kind of thread in Egypt?! May be is one of those Ironies in Life...
I love to tat using very fine threads so I think I'll return to this web site soon to get some other colors and threads. The service was fast and easy to order.
