I have a friend who just found out she has terminal lung cancer. I would like to make ribbons for her family. The color for lung cancer is pearl. Do you have any suggestions as to the brand and #?

I don't have a precise answer for you but I think any off white would be OK. If you can find one with pearlescent colors mixed in it (maybe a metallic) then even better.

I will say a prayer for your friend and her family, I also lost my brother last year to lung cancer.

I am so sorry to hear this sad news. My daughter was dianosed with lung cancer nearly 8 years ago. She is now cancer free. I made her a cancer survivor shirt, and we were told that the ribbon is white and crystal. I used the hot fix crystals on the design for her. She was also given a pendant that was the ribbon with diamonds. I think that by using any white thread would do and you could apply the crystals. If you have any questions, contact me in private. Blessing to you and her family.
I am so sorry to hear about your friend. I lost my mother and 2 uncles to cancer. It is very hard and my heart goes out to you.
Robison-Anton Color #1014 (Iris) is a very pretty pearly metallic.

I am so sorry to hear about your friend. As to your question, Madeira has a nice white with a pearly glitter in their metallic series, #300. I know quite a number of Cuties don't like Madeira at all, but I've been using it for 16 years without any problems.
So sorry to hear about you friend. I also like Madeira, and their colours are great.
dkatz I'm so sorry to hear about your friend, U have an answer about the threads but wanted u to know I'm thinking of u & your friend. *
