Trying to take a picture of thread wrapped in cellophane proved to be a pain in the posterior. Even trying a polarizing filter didn't work that well because of all the different angles (at least I think that's why). I wasn't about to unwrap all these little beauties either, not to take a picture at least.
They're all Lizbeth size 40 which Roseground don't supply yet and since I didn't get a response from my email to them I'm not sure when they'll have this size.

I ordered this bundle from Happy Hands in America which meant I had to pay quite a lot for shipping and was also stung by customs and parcelforce, the gits. Still, I wanted them badly enough that I was willing to pay.
I unwrapped one ball last night even though I was exhausted as I couldn't have slept without at least trying it out. I noticed that rings are slightly more difficult to close neatly in one swift move as the thread did a twisty thing but maybe I'll get better at this.

I think you're set for life now. LOL! I think the most thread I ever bought was when I was in Australia. I bought several balls of size 16 finca at a craft show and then I bought several of Aida thread when I went to a thread store with a friend. Even so...the two batches together, were not this many. LOL! Enjoy!
YOWZAAA! How gorgeous! Yummy, wonderful addictive and beautiful, sweeet Lizbeth!
ENJOY!
Happy tatting,
Fox : ))
Oh, yes. Jealous I am. What a stash! Have fun planning your projects :)
I can't even blame all this thread on an accident this time as I thought about it for quite a while before ordering. The only bad thing about it was the fact that I had to pay almost as much for postage/customs/handling fees as I did for the thread itself.
Now that is a thread order to write home about! I have a growing list of thread to order in April. Not as long as your list -- my goodness that is an impressive order!
I do envy the fun you will have more months (maybe even years) to come! What am I saying? I know you will find reasons to order more thread...it is the way of the force. ENJOY!
Technically I don't think I'll need more thread for a while yet but I'm not going to swear that I won't get any. I'm glad you understand.
I envy all that thread LOL! You do know that Lizbeth is available from Roseground here in the UK don't you?
All the size 20 Lizbeth I own is from Roseground but they don't do the smaller size 40. I believe they'll be selling the smaller size at some point but they didn't answer my email asking when and I got impatient so went to the source.
