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).

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!!!!

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!

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..

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 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

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.
