Wonderfil Perle Cotton Set - Alison Glass Fauna

I have never used perle thread before in my embroidery, but when I saw these colors and textures I knew this was the perfect time to try. I’m still in the planning and sketching stage, but this set plus the variegated set have given me the inspiration needed to try something new.

I purchased all of the Alison Glass colors and really enjoy using it in my embroidery. Lately, I have been drawing designs on cotton tea towels and stitchin' them up. I wanted a thread with more dimension & texture. This perle #8 is perfect, soft and comes in such stunning colors I got them all!
I plan to try it out on my denim embellishing projects as well but I'm still playing with Spaghetti Garden at the moment!

I'm completely partial to Wonderfil perle cotton--it is far and away the highest quality of any I've tried. Add the gorgeous colors of Alison Glass to the mix and you've got a winner!

Though it says "flora" to me more than "fauna: the color choices included make gorgeous, saturated work suitable for many subjects. In fact, with a ball of white you have a very versatile palette to use for a variety of subjects. One strand beads well with seed beads and larger beads too!
