FSL Criswell Angels stitched with Metro Sigma new thread.

These are the four colors of the new thread from Metro that I recently purchased. The stitched very well on My Brother PC-8500 and my Singer XL400. I will purchase other colors and budget allows. The peach thread is the regular mini spool from Metro and is a bit shorter...but both have the same amount of thread.

The Angels are Free Standing Lace designs that are stitched on water soluble stabilizer. When done stitching the designs you rinse them in water and the water soluble stabilizer rinse right out and you are left with the lace angles.

Beautiful angels design. I will have to remember the thread name next time I order. You can really see a nice sheen on the blue and lavender when picture is enlarged. Nice work.

Thank you. Sadly, Metro hasn't given names to all the new colors. Most are just the number. But the dark one is called Cranberry. Hope you try some soon.
Hugs!

Beautiful Angels! Question? What is the difference in this type of thread? I have lots of Metro's thread, but not the Sigma, How is it different? Thank you for sharing with us. Tammy

Thanks so much! I'm not sure about the difference. I couldn't tell and other than the different colors are unlike any of the regular Metro thread colors.
Hugs!
