New Spring Floss Colors

Now that the floss give-away is over I thought I would show the rest of you the new spring set of floss I have added to my store inventory. It is available on ebay or direct from me.
Olde Marigold, Spring Green, Primrose Pink, Sweet Lilac and Forget Me Not Blue.

I will be adding a lot of new colors in the next couple months. I want to get a few more sampler patterns finished before I get back to the dye pot. It has been a nice break, let me tell you. But once more I will put on the rubber gloves and be dipping and dunking thousands of yards of floss as I do every spring.
I wish I could find someone who lives close to me to help put this on the cards. The other gal I had did not work out and it was too expensive shipping her boxes of floss and then returning them. If the postal rates keep going up we won't be able to ship anything to anyone. It is ridiculous these days. A small envelope with a few skeins of floss overseas is $9 to mail! Don't get me started.....
So it is Monday....the start of another new week.....and I guess I better get started! So much to do around here.

Thanks for stopping by....have a great week.
Nancy

  6. Lovely colors! I too wish I lived close enough to help. I'm in central IL, and if I recall correctly, you are in southern IL?

  11. Such pretty new colors. Gosh, I was just thinking how fun it would be to work with a floss hand-dyer. Too bad I'm so far north of you.

  12. Beautiful colors Nancy! I hope you find someone in your area to help you out. I hear you about the postage. It's really sad how overpriced it has become.

  14. As always gorgeous! Postage sucks, Royal Mail in the UK are raising prices again next month. So by any chance you live near a University? or college? or school? If so you can contact the student union/career service and see if you can find some eager person who for a small fee would do the cards for you.

    I would obviously love to help. But I am in the UK (so really really far away).
