Gay Ann teaches us about thread weight

June 22, 2010 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

Gay Ann Rogers has posted a new technique article on the weight of thread. She says,

 As I look at needlework past and present, I think much of technical success depends on the weight of the thread the stitcher chooses. We all recognize when thread is too thin, but too often we miss noticing when thread is too heavy. My column this morning is on assessing thread weight and constant testing. Like most of life, there isn’t any magic answer, just toil and practice.

See Gay Ann’s blog post. Or go directly to the technique article.
