Can't Find YLI's Metallic Ribbon Floss?

Suzanne says that if you need YLI's Metallic Ribbon Floss but can't find it, you can substitute YLI's Quilt Highlights Metallic.

Quilt Highlights Metallic comes on a 100 yard spool.  Metallic Ribbon Floss comes on a 14.76 yard plastic frame.  You might need to share with all your stitching friends if you go the Quilt Highlights Metallic route!

Thanks for the tip, Suzanne.

Sea Shell Santa (Janet Zickler Casey)

Brenda of Brenda's Needlepoint Studio is working another Janet Z. Casey Santa, this time the Sea Shell Santa.

By the way, the spools of YLI ribbon floss are the old packaging.  It's usually only available on the square frames now.  Metallic ribbon floss is a bit stiffer than the regular ribbon floss, so that may be part of the problem, or maybe this is just a really old spool of thread.
