Hanah Silk Satin Ribbons 65mm.

My favourite hand dyed, bias cut, Silk Satin Hanah ribbons have just been loaded onto our web pages. We have 7 gorgeous shades and they are dyed in the same colours as the finer bias cut silk ribbons. They will add a lovely sheen to your work and they drape beautifully. I use the wide ribbons for yo-yos as well as rolled and roses.  Ideal for floral embroidery, crazy patchwork, collage, millinery and bindings.
65mm. wide

Now the cooler days are just around the corner, it's the ideal time to work with the hand dyed felted wools for applique. Mix them with Colour Streams velvets and felts for stunning contrasts.

New Neon Rays Ribbon Floss

                

Neon Rays Ribbon Floss is a smooth narrow rayon ribbon that is wonderful for highlights in your embroidery.  I have used it in embroidery for Christmas stockings and crazy patchwork.  It makes great French Knots and flower centres. 
It can also be used for cross stitch, canvas work and wool applique.  It is the smoothest and best quality floss I have worked with.
                                    
I used Chain Stitch and then whipped the chain for the berry branches on my Brambleberry Stocking.  Worked in the brown ribbon it had a lovely woody look and nice contrast to the wool background.
