Candice, may I ask about your source? I would really like to try sewing with linen on the machine, but usually I only find linen 'zwirn' which is unsuitable for it, so I never tried as of yet<div>Elisande<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<div>Check with Needlewoman East and with In Stitches to see if they carry DMC linen embroidery floss or some other brand.  Give them a call first to see if they do so you can save a trip in case they don't.  Otherwise, you can order online at <a href="http://www.shopdmc.com/spthpa.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.shopdmc.com/spthpa.html</a></div>

<div> </div>
<div>You can also order embroidery linen floss (Rainbow linen embroidery thread) and linen thread for general hand sewing from Reconstructing History.  <a href="http://www.reconstructinghistory.com/threads.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.reconstructinghistory.com/threads.php?</a></div>
