As for silks, NPI are good and readily available. I have a hard time finding AVAS. But, Belle Soie and Gloriana are both lovely (though expensive), if you're looking for a variegated look. But, I think if you're used to working in DMC, NPI is your best silk bet.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15055538119434258693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34646619.post-7368065257105042642009-09-15T17:07:25.192-04:002009-09-15T17:07:25.192-04:00That is an adorable finish!
