Hi Jacquie and Sue, et al,
Your threads (both metaphorical and physical ..) made me smile! I have
quite a stash of Oliver Twists, but also quite a few of the late Mr Piper's
silks in beautiful colours. He was a lovely man, and he used to let me
have 'left-over' reels of coloured silks when my Mother was
hand-embroidering pictures, so I have quite a lot which I feel are far too
wonderful to use. The polythene packets are a good idea to keep them dry
and clean, though!

Sue said "Went to the Ally Pally on Sunday to the Knitting and Stitching
Show and Oliver Twists Threads were there , so guess who is sitting here
drooling over the beautiful coloured silk threads and wondering what to do
first, what a dilemma."
Are you supposed to *do* something with them????
Most people seem to keep them in their little colour-range packets. They
are much easier to drool over that way and they don't get damp! <VBG>
