Re: [lace] Finca thread

2008-10-23 Thread VivienneWalton
Hi, yes there did used to be a problem with a sticky dot. However when we
became the Uk supplier of Finca we got them to drop it. So now it is only on
the
 Metallic as it doesn't cause a problem on that. I would point out that as
you  get 900m on any reel of Finca Lace thread you actually get more length to
the £1  than any other thread. Finally if you Sue would like to send me the
reel I will  refund your postage and give you a new reel. If any of you get a
problem we  would love to know as we can get Finca to put it right. I can't
put
our name as  that would be advertising but I am sure you clever lace makers
can
find us,  Vivienne

[lace] Finca thread

2008-10-23 Thread Sue
A word of warning - I have just opened a reel of Finca thread which I
admit that I bought about two years ago, but if you buy any please take
care to remove the sticky round tag that holds the end of the thread in
place because I have just had to remove yards of thread and discard
because the sticky bit had discoloured the thread underneath it and
being a meany about wasting thread it did not bear well with me.

Finca 30  or Finca 40 depending on the brand of linen thread
 (threads can be so confusing)

[lace] Finca thread

2005-04-16 Thread Whitham
Dear Spiders,
Thanks for sharing the story on Finca thread.  Is this thread new?  I am 
tempted to try the Finca thread.   I like the look of linen but I have 
trouble with it breaking, maybe Finca would work better for me

What size Finca thread would be equivilant to DMC 80 Dentelles, and  Linen 
60/2?  (threads can be so confusing)

Thanks,
Irene Whitham
where it is raining, a perfect day for lacemaking but I have to go to work 
;(
