Luneville needle, available in size 80 and 120. Size 80 is the standard size that will work fine with the fil-a-gant and ‘sewingmachine yarn thickness'. With size 120  you can use a thicker decorative thread when there are no beads and sequins used.

A very fine and soft embroidery wool made for Au Ver a Soie by La Route de la Laine in France. This lovely wool is finer than DMC Medici and comes in 8 meter hanks. There are actually 32 meters of wool as it easily separates into 4 individual strands. 

100% wool

fil-a-gant is the best thread to use for beads and sequins. The thread is very thin and strong. Originally it was used to make gloves (gant) so it is very strong. It is made of 100% cotton and waxed. 150m per bobbin

Probably the most well known embroidery thread. It is a 6ply thread, strandable and has a beautiful sheen. The basic material is Finca® Mouliné made by Presencia Hilaturas in Valencia®.

Seven ply stranded thread, i.e. the thread consists of 7 single strands of spun silk, that have been loosely twisted. It is easy to pull out each strand individually. The shine is rather dull. It is spun of short silk fibres and relatively "elastic" and will easily lay flat on the fabric. The single thread is slightly thicker than the more well-known stranded cotton, but much softer and more “fluffy". It creates a very smooth surface.

The n°40 metallic thread is for hand or machine stitching. It is made from a thin gimped metalloplastic strip. Metalloplastic signifies that it is not made of metal, but a metal-like material. A gimped thread is made of one thread wound around another in a coil. On this thread, the coil is so tightly wound that there is no space between the coils, which is why it remains intact, even when used on a machine. 100 m. per bobbin.
