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

Hand Dyed Felted Wool


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.

Bead Stash clearance

             
I am clearing my stash of beads and have put together a range that I think will suit all you crazy patchwork and embellishing needs.  See them in What's New

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.

Replace your needles

Needles are the most important tool we use for our stitching so it's really important to replace them from time to time. You'll notice the difference and it will make stitching much easier. Look under "Accessories and Scissors" on the Website for the range of needles I recommend.
The embroidery hoops we carry are strong beechwood with a long screw for tightening which has a slot for a screwdrive to make tightening firmer.
