Specialty Threads
Eleganza Variegated Thread
Eleganza's short variegations will give motion to your piece and are especially eye-catching when used for Wrapped Stitches such as Bullion Knots or Drizzle Stitches, due to the frequent color change.
Eleganza Solid #8 Thread
Eleganza Pearl Cotton makes for a beautiful embellishment thread. The impeccable quality of this thread results in a smooth, lustrous surface allowing the thread to glide smoothly through all types of fibers
Primitive Eleganza Thread
The Primitive Collection of the Sue Spargo Eleganza color line introduces a variety of subtle earth tones and understated colors.
Wonderfil Eleganza Thread
Eleganza's tight twist creates beautiful firm and textural stitches and its reflective surface gives a luxurious luster to embellishment stitchery
Ellana Wool/Acrylic Thread
Ellana is fray resistant and contains significantly less fuzz, rendering an unparalleled smoothness. Its soft loft is ideal for creating delicate detail when used for hand embroidery.
Sue Spargo 100% Australian Merino Wool
Proficiently woven with 100% premium grade Australian Merino Wool,
this fabric is truly in a class of its own. Richly dyed and raised to a
perfect hand, this soft, luxuriously felted fabric is designed for ease of
stitch penetration. Available in 60 vibrant colors that boasts both an
even and saturated dye, it possesses unparalleled colorfastness.
