• 12-strand Silk Floss is a spun silk thread with silk's beauty, luster, and shine, but doesn't catch on your hands. The size of one strand is comparable to other stranded silks, such as Splendor, Soie Cristale, and Needlepoint Inc. Silk. Gloriana Silk is soft and remarkably easy to stitch with.

Be prepared - I have lots of ideas for blog posts.

It was quite a busy couple of months and my mind was scattered.

I appreciate all of your encouragement, or should I say threats, to get back to the blog.
