HI Liz and Hina - et al,
I gave a wry smile when I read about not liking the frustration of too much
of the same disaster! One of my students is making one of Jenny Hester's
lovely wall-hangings, and is using Madeira thread, which I recommended, and
which I very often use, with no problems at all. However, my student is
experiencing problems with the cream thread, which is breaking far too
often - maybe bought from a supplier who keeps it on the stall for too long,
or in sunlight, or some other disastrous venue for threads. She is still
continuing with it, but I am sure I would have given up long since, and used
the scissors.
On a happpier note, I contacted the makers and, although we hadn't a clue
who the supplier was, they kindly sent another reel, so by the time we get
back to classes after the summer break, I am hoping she will be finding this
new reel a lot less trouble!

Gina, I like a challenge too, - but not one that gets me too frustrated.
