New Floss Discovery

I just had to share about a new hand-dyed floss I just discovered. It’s from an eBay store called Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe (here’s the direct link to her floss category). This floss is just GORGEOUS!!!

Definitely click on the image above to see a larger version. I will say, as I always do, the photo simply does not do these colors justice! The subtle color variations just aren’t showing up that well in the photo. For a color point of reference, I have them on a piece of Maple Sugar linen from Lakeside Linens. I think this floss is perfect for those of us who enjoy doing monochromatic samplers.

Her prices are awesome as well! Each tag is $2 each which contains 20 yards of floss (DMC base). She even throws in extra floss with each order to cover the shipping costs which are already very reasonable. I only paid $1.50 for shipping on this order since she combines shipping. She mailed them the day after I ordered them, so I received them in just a few days.

With this first order, I got a couple of misc. assortments to get an idea of what her colors were like and I couldn’t be more pleased with what I received. I can’t wait to start stitching with them! I’ve already ordered more. I can’t wait to see the pumpkin set in person! Here are the links to what I just ordered:

Pumpkin (Pumpkin B, Rust Red, Russet, Nutmeg)
Antique Christmas (Light Antique Gold, Medium Antique Brass, Antique Red & Green)

I’ll post pictures of these after I receive them as well.

Until next time …
