Oh boy, I get that, Carol-Anne! Sometimes I think I need THREE other mes to get just the stitching projects and techniques I want to learn and do done!

I'd love to take the ThistleThreads online course this year, but I don't see it happening. :(

The gold work course looks amazing. I would really like to do that but I have to think carefully about the things that I have on already. It is an 18 month course. I need another me so I can do all the things that I want to.

Hi All,

Recently I received my latest e-newsletter from Thistle Threads, Historically Inspired Needle Art, and thought you may be interested in visiting the site as it has some interesting information and examples of goldwork on it.

http://thistle-threads.com.mytempweb.com/about/index.html

They have also just released their 2010 Online University Courses including goldwork classes. Hope you find this information interesting and useful. Sandy

Threadneedle Street in Issaquah, Washington, USA has a good supply of gold, silver and copper threads. You can check out their website and/or call them. http://www.threadneedlestreet.com/

First let me take a minute a define a couple of terms.

Metal Thread - Japanese Thread and Passing Threads have some metal content. As such you need to get these from specialty places - Benton and Johnson and Golden Threads in the UK are 2 such. Access Commodities purchases from these suppliers as well and some LNS carry them. One online source is Hedgehog Handworks.

There are faux Metal Threads from Kreinik and other sources. These lack metal thread content and will behave differently.

If you are doing Goldwork you will need threads with metal in them.

-- my 2 cents -- as someone who takes classes from the RSN and other goldwork teachers and teaches this technique

The same goes for me Rosalie. Grace

Rosalie, cannot find how to give you the information on supplies as your message is not here and there is no address on my email so if you would like to contact me on sandra26sandra@optusnet.com.au and let me know where you live I will give you some information and also email you a copy of my goldwork notes I use for teaching this techniques to my students and friends. Sandra
