There's a new thread in town! It's called Essentials and it is half silk and half Merino wool. It is thinner than Pepper Pot Silk, which I find a little fat for 18 count (but others think Pepperpot perfect for 18 count canvases so this is probably related to stitch tension). This is available from Planet Earth Fibers. Suzie Vallerie loves it and promises a review later on when she's not so busy getting ready for the Orlando show. (second link)

There are 130 colors and 10 yards of thread on each card. Stay tuned!

This is exciting! I'm distressed to see that they only did three purples! Ack! I hope Lori gets this in the shop, though I don't know where we would put more thread.
I'm hoping that if the thread does well, they will fill out their color range more. As for where to put more thread, I'm will to take everything you cannot fit in.
