Hi All!!

I was part of a discussion awhile back about silk threads. Where some of you listed your favorites places to buy silk threads online. I can't find that particular post (I did find another, but it wasn't the right one). At that time I saved the different web sites to my favs on the computer. My computer has since crashed and I lost everything (up and running again:]). I want to buy some silks online any good suggestions for some online stores with good prices and great service? Needlepoint Nec is good but I am willing to try some other brands too. :Thanks:

I have three sources for my silks: One Star's Light Needlework Supplies (http://onestarslight.com/) is my source of Crescent Colours (which are to die for because of the colours and softness) and Dinky Dyes. (U.S.A.) Violarium (http://violarium.com/) is my Atalie silk source (rather costly, but yummy colours :]) (Finland, ships internationally) Hand-dyedfibers.com (http://www.hand-dyedfibers.com/oscnuked/) sells only Vikki's own silks which are lovely to stitch with (they cover well and shine beautifully) - I just received 28 skeins from her. :] (U.S.A.)
I can recommend them all also for service as the level of service is why I use them. :evil:

Thanks Succubus,

The Hand-dyed fibers by Vikki is one that I wanted especially to try but couldn't remember the site.
