Hi Bjarne, Lacis has a lot of tools: http://www.lacis.com/catalog/search.php and elegant stitch: http://www.elegantstitch.com/special.htm lists a variety of silk threads for tambour so I think you're on the right track. I'd love to learn how to do this type of needlework, but it's down a bit on my list ;) Good luck and I can't wait to see what you make next! Chris

When trying succesfully, i used ordinary sewing silk, and it worked for me. Now i just wondered, those of you who do tambour embroidery, do you have any favourite thread to use, and where could i get this? I prefer silk as you know. Many thanks.
