Caron Collection: Impressions are a crewel weight soft wool used for Surface Embroidery and Canvaswork
ALTERNATIVE ... Heathway Wool dyed by Catkin Crown in the UK.
"Catkin Crown Textile Studio was formed in 2019, when we were given the opportunity to acquire the beautiful Heathway Milano range of crewel wool embroidery thread from Langley Threads.
"Heathway Milano is beautifully soft crewel wool that comes in a wide range of colours and is gorgeous to work with. They will be appreciated by those who wish to avoid the thinning (which results in irregular stitching), pilling, fluffing or untwisting that can occur with other threads."
Each Colour Range is numbered #1 to #9 with #1 being the lightest. The listing will note if the colours are in stock currently or need to be ordered. Find the full collection featured under the THREADS drop down menu!
Heathway Milano Wool - Dyed in West Yorkshire, UK
March had many NEW DISCOVERIES patterns being released at the annual Nashville Needlework Market. As I did not attend, I will be able to order these patterns in April once they are added to the distributor's website.
Many of these patterns can also be purchased directly from the designers as PDF downloads. No need to wait for a paper copy to be ordered and the designers get 100% of your purchase price! I am happy to help you kit out the pattern with fabric and threads.
If you have a suggestion for a new item please email: EmbroideryMarketplace@gmail.com
I am always on the lookout for new items to add to my website! I order patterns as they are requested so please email if you are looking for a particular designer and can't see it on my website.
Metric Collection of Fabrics
Starting in March 2025, I will be ordering some fabrics from a Canadian Supplier who imports from Zwiegart directly. These fabrics are purchased in Meters and I will slowly transition the available fabrics to this size. There is a limited colour range and some Zweigart will still need to be sourced with a USA distributor. Crewel Work Company (UK) will also be sold in meter cuts now.
Find the full collection in the main Drop Down Menu, you can also filter the collection using the BROWSE BY menu to view by Count, Colour or Fabric Type.
There is a new collection of Discontinued Fabric Sizes that will show the fabrics that still has stock in the old sizes. Once a fabric is sold out it will transition to metric and I may have stock in both sizes for a while.
The Metric listing will also show the equivalent Imperial sizes as most patterns use inches in their descriptions.
If you have any questions please email (EmbroideryMarketplace@gmail.com)
In Stock - Hand Dyed Fabrics
I order hand dyed fabric each month so my colour selection changes all the time. I normally only order colours if they are requested by customers. Each listing will note the sizes that are in stock (Small, Medium and/or Large)
Some companies are discontinued as I am no longer ordering from them directly. Currently I am actively ordering from Weeks Dye Works, Picture This Plus and The Grateful Thread (Canada). Find the full collection under the DROP DOWN menu (Fabric -> In Stock Collections -> IN STOCK - Hand Dyed Fabrics)
