Oh my! What beautiful floss. I had a (very) quick look at the website. .... wow. What wonderful things there. :wub:

@ Nicola...what a good plan to get a roll of fabric for those lovely Wrendale designs. :applesauce: I didn't know that was available in a roll. Where did you get that?
I thought those designs came as kits. Did you just buy the chart?

She has wonderful threads, and I have bought so many different shades she has for sale. She also sells them on eBay for $2.45 per 20 yard skeins, and offers a few options for floss of the month club (of course I belong to one of them ) :lol:

WELL DONE KAREN on winning such glorious shades of threads. I am sure you will have a lot of fun with them.

I bought it on a website called Stitcher. It's a kit and comes with printed aida in it but I prefer to use my own. They last a long time if you buy a roll and have been meaning to get a new one for ages. I normally get the white 14 count but decided to get the Antique white 16 count for my Wrendale projects :lol:

I'm not sure whether to start him after I've finished the duck or to start the Brown Hare. I'll wait and see ;)

I have been exercising self control as I have just had a new heater a/c unit installed and have two pieces at the framers right now. So I'll just agree with everyone. These are absolutely :drool: worthy.
