Just to let you know that there are suppliers in the UK who will be able to
supply Finca thread so you don't need to worry, it will be available.

So sorry to hear that news I shall miss Finca thread it's one of my very 
favourites as it always works so well and the smoothness of it makes for a 
lovely sheen on the lace.  I shall have to be very careful with the small 
amount that I have left.
I will miss Biggins as well as Vivienne was always very generous with her 
advice on threads at lace days.

Hi folks

Sorry about the gobbledegook at the end of my last message - the auto insert
is getting worse.  Should have read
“concentrating on their patterns and appropriate threads for those
patterns".

Thanks for re-quoting Brenda's message, Clay.   Brenda's emails are amongst 
those that get cut off for me as soon as something like an apostrophe is used.

It is indeed very sad news that Presencia Span are insolvent and we may soon 
have to do without their wonderful Finca thread, and a great shame for sellers 
like the Bigginses that they too have to go out of business.

That is just so sad.  I really fear for the livelihood of our precious art!

Hi Liz

It’s because Presencia Spain are insolvent.  The conditions the
administrators are imposing - big price increase, payment in advance and with
the current situation no certainty of actually receiving the goods - meant
that Vivienne and Iain of Presencia UK felt that they had no option other than
voluntary liquidation/winding up.

Once the legalities are sorted and different threads have been sourced they
are planning to relaunch as Biggins; concentration on their patterns and
appraise threads for those patterns.
