Dear Liz,
I need to use gold thread in Needlelace - for the cordonette around the edge,
and maybe(Probably) for some couronnes (the little fancy rings that are stab
stitched on afterwards.)
I have Madeira #40 "gold 4", Sulky Metallic, and Butterfly brand (a 3 ply so
I would use only one of the plys, I think)
When it came to tatting in fine metallics some years ago I tried them
all and found that Kreinik Japan silver and gold were the best by far,
David
Question - Has anyone had any experience with using any of these for
Needlework - needlelace or Embroidery?
I am wondering how easily the gold splits and wears through to the cotton core
(I am presuming they all are made similarly)
