\"Cosmo<\/a>One of the delightful things about teaching at All Threads Embroidery<\/a> in Brisbane is the fact that Kerryn has such an amazing range of products. In my humble opinion, her range is by far better than any needlework shop in Sydney. She had a few threads that I had never heard of before, including Cosmo Seasons and Cottage Garden Threads.<\/p>\n

While I didn’t buy any of the Cottage Garden Threads, I did pick up a few Cosmo Seasons skeins. It seems that they have been around for a little while, but Kerryn’s only had them for a couple of weeks. They’re from Japan, and my initial impression is that they feel very soft and they have quite a lovely sheen.<\/p>\n

They come in an 8m skein, in really lovely variegated colour schemes. I did think that their selection of reds was not very good (the one second from the right is the closest thing they have to red), but they have some lovely blues, greens and purples. I didn’t buy any of the pastel type colours, but the range extends from the darker colours like I bought, right through to lovely pastels and even variegated “whites”.<\/p>\n

Kerryn said that she’ll be interested to hear what I think of stitching with them, as she hasn’t had the chance yet. Hmmm… I’d love to stitch up some little somethings in them, just because the colours are so pretty. I wonder what? And more to the point, when?!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
