better than the finished products? Sometimes I wonder. I can stand and stare at a notions wall for a good long time. I don't like or want all the gadgets but I do enjoy pin cushions, scissors, needles...oh the needles. I like a tiny little needle when I sew. Which reminds me, I have the coolest packages of needles but I didn't even think of those when I was taking pictures. I'll show you those tomorrow.
Today I have this on my mind.....I mean, really! That box of Cosmo threads is awesome. I needed 16 skeins for a project. The shop only had 15 but 12 were still boxed up. Man, if I could buy all my thread like that I'd be doing nothing but monochromatic projects.
These lovelies are for a Crabapple Hill project.
Now, don't go holding your breath or anything. I'm a good 2 years into another Crabapple Hill project with no projected finish date.
I once bought the Valdani threads for a cross stitch project simply because I WANTED those little balls of thread. Turns out the prepackaged collection was in skeins but I'm sure the end result will be worth the investment....assuming I complete the project in this life time. That's a conversation for another day.

Love the threads and the colors in that project!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of Cosmo threads, but they look wonderful--that project is really going to be beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGreat project Libby. I too love little needles and I have the best pincushion from my Christmas swap partner!
