Hello All! Thanks Bev for the update on "Iris". Sorry to hear about its demise. While I understand the dilemma facing the thread companies, reducing/consolidating product lines doesn't always equate to an increase in sales in the "substitute" product line because, in fact, there are often NO suitable substitutes. One possible alternative that I haven't seen mentioned here--flat silk. It comes in a bazillion colors & can be made any thickness & any twist that is desired. This is not suitable for large quantities, but could be useful in a pinch. Japanese Embroidery Center in Atlanta, GA will ship abroad but cannot process online orders; print the online form then snail mail only. Usual disclaimers, no connection, just a satisfied customer. I must mention that treating your hands 1st is a must when working with flat silk!!! Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA
