Thread, Beautiful Thread

Vicky and I both love Belle Soie silk floss from Crescent Colours. The company started out focused on over dyed cotton flosses for the repo sampler crowd, but about 6-7 years ago added 12 ply silk floss (the same base as Splendor, I think) to their line. The colors are lovely and somewhat different from the cotton floss colors.  At least when I visited Scarlet Thread and compared Crescent Colours silks and cottons I couldn't seem to find the same shades in both threads.  Here's Vicki to talk more about it but I have to say I like this thread and would use more of it if I could get it easily.
