Anchor has started making their 6 stranded cotton floss
onto spools.....no more winding floss on bobbins and getting knots.
It looks so exciting,
I think I will try some for my designs, but I still will give the DMC alternative.
OH they look LOVELY!!
I found this in a flyer from Joann Fabric
Just sharing exciting news
have a good weekend
and thank you so much to every one that purchased a
"Stitch & Quilt Textile Fragment"
I am excited !

HI -- I didn't know the Anchor floss on spools was new! Michaels is also selling this version. I bought some the other day because I was also excited to see the spools. They had a ton of colors too-- probably Anchor's whole line.
ReplyDeleteThank you telling me about it being at Michaels, I have searched Joann because they advertised it and they are out of stock on line and in any stores close to me. I will ck out Michaels :)
DeleteDonna: Thank-you for sharing with us, this is great news, I am going to look for the DMC on spools when I run out of a color.

Hi Catherine, it was only Anchor that I saw but hopefully DMC can follow too,
DeleteAs much as I love the idea of this, they've basically added a significant amount of single use plastic to their packaging, when it was previously plastic-free. I don't think this has been well thought out by Anchor at all, as we should all be looking to reduce our use of plastics for the sake of the environment.
