I got my eBay 447 silk threads today - wow :shock: :shock: :shock:

I really don't care that they don't quite match their DMC numbers, I don't even care if they are colourfast or not. I just want to eat them!!

They are sooo beautiful just to look at, so vibrant and shiny. There's an emerald green that is just to die for - DMC 699 (ish). I am really looking forward to trying these out. Or I might just keep looking at them :D :D

:doh: Have I not? OK, I am confused now. Maybe it was something else? :oops: let me go and see if I can sort it out.

OK, I know now. It was the booklet Bert (Es) offered in the trade section - we just spoke about it right before my trip to Spain and I completley forgot. Sorry.
