Threadaholics will love looking at the stitched sampler of all the Cottage Garden Threads that were available up until last fall. Cottage Garden Threads is an Australian company that specializes in overdyed cottons so seeing each color name stitched gives you a wonderful idea of the effect of each overdye.

This is a new company and their threads aren't readily available in the U.S. but they are worth seeking out if you need a special color or just want to play with something new ordered from Australia.

Those threads are absolutely gorgeous! Are they not available now?
Yes, they are available but I haven't found a US store that carries them. The only place I've found them are quilting stores in Australia.
