As May draws to a close, and with the three-day holiday weekend ahead (in the States, anyway), methinks it’s a great time for a give-away!

And not just any give-away, mind you! No, no! It has to be great! And what could be better than one that feeds the Inner Thread Junkie in all of us?

Today, courtesy of Needle in a Haystack, three of you will have the opportunity to acquire six brand new spools of gorgeous silk embroidery thread in your choice of colors. It’s a terrific way to add to your thread stash, or, for newbies to silk, to start it!

If you’d like to join in, read on, my friend…

Last week, I showed you up close Sajou’s Fil au Chinois silk perle #30. You can read all about the thread here, along with some tips on how to work with it.

As a perle silk, it’s used straight off the spool in the single strand. It’s suitable for surface embroidery, needlepoint or canvas work, crazy quilting, and any application where a twisted silk perle would look great!

If you’d like to join in today’s give-away, please follow the guidelines below!
