Bev, I used button hole silk twist. With 100 the following also works: Kreinik Soie Perlee which is usually available at embroidery shops; a little thinner gimp would be Caron Waterlillies using a single strand, this also comes in color, this comes from an embroidery store also; Mulberry Silk, 30/3 or 40/3. I do not know who sells it.
