I am so excited! Have a look what my husband ordered me for my birthday!

He told me I have no reason any more to moan that I miss a shade as this are all the colours Madeira does (356).

What a great birthday present. I got a box of chocolates for my birthday which was the same price as two spools of thread. Want to trade? Well, I didn't think so. Here's a flower from me.

I think that man of yours needs some extra loving for being such a thoughtful guy. I think you should make something for him first. You know there are other holidays coming up. LOL

I'm so happy for you! I've been trying to build my collection a little at a time. It is really quite frustrating when I find that I still don't have a shade that I need. I think we Cuties should nominate your hubby for the Husband Of The Year Award. Happy stitching! ***

I have them and love them!! You might want to take a picture of the top table of where the thread is in the case. I have had mine for years and it is now starting to fade so I can not make out where some of the #'s are..

Ok On the question what do I do first with it? I have made a computer chart with all the numbers, colours onb it to hang above the chests. (Did that yesterday) Today I am going to go through my stack of old thread and tick on my chart where I still have old reels to finish. My husband thinks I am a control freak, but it is so easy to start using the new threads and not the old ones, so I have to chart it out!

It is a great gift with many and many years of pleasure. I have more or less the same in Madeira Polyneon and love the choice. Mine is already a few years old.It easy just to order one or two colours when you start to run out of those and your box is up to date again. Enjoy!!!!
