Global Collaboration of Individual Dyers and Designers

Once again, a group of international thread and fabric dyers have collaborated to produce limited edition offerings!

For 2007, there will be two packs offered - one in May, and one in October. The theme for May is "Summer Fantasy", and for October is "Autumn Dreams".

The May packs are available now, and are - in a word - gorgeous! Rich luscious summery tones are carried through the fabric from Jayne's Attic and Polstitches in the UK, and from Countrystitch in New Zealand. The Polstitches cotton floss coordinates perfectly with Jo's fabric, and the silk floss and cotton floss from Dinky Dyes and Ozark Sampler complement the three fabrics beautifully.

Each dyer has also produced a limited edition chart that is exclusive to this release - and all the charts are different to each other, and offer a lot of options to stitchers wanting to branch out with threads and fabrics.

Each pack comes to you in a presentation pack that makes it feel like it's your birthday or Christmas no matter the day of the year!

Because the packs are limited editions, when they are sold out that's it - they're gone! The packs are available for order now, and are priced at $NZ57 each. For the quantity of goodies in there, that represents fantastic value!

The postage will be more than the usual amount, and this will be adjusted to reflect actual (or as close to it as possible) when the charge is processed against your card.

I also have very limited quantities of the 2006 Natures Hues and 2005 Fine Wines and Spirits packs available. Email me if you need further information.

To order any current issues please "Go Shopping" and select Collaboration Packs under Hand Dyed Fabric.
