Recently there was a question on the
Feeling Stitchy Facebook Page about six stranded (or six ply) cotton embroidery floss. What's the difference between, for example,
Coats and Clark floss compared to
DMC ? Or
Anchor,
Cosmo or
Presencia? Is one better in quality than the other? I doubt it, but I do think (and actually know from experience) there are differences between brands. I'm pretty sure more embroiderers are wondering about this so I thought it would be a good question for the knowledgeable readers of
Feeling Stitchy!
Do you have a 'preferred' floss and why? Have you tried several brands or do you stick to just one? Share your Embroidery Floss experience with us!
P.S. if you like pretty photos of embroidery floss, why not join the
Embroidery Thread Lovers Group on
Flickr?
