Sullivan's thread

Do you like Sullivan's thread, thinking of using it in a project HAED.

Elizabethdx Publish time 2022-9-14 06:21

I dislike Sullivans, which I tried when it came in a kit. The floss shredded as I stitched with it. Ugh.

Sorry, but I have never heard of Sullivan's thread. Is there a DMC to Sullivan conversion chart?

I've used it and have had less complaints about it than I do about DMC.

I absolutely detest DMC.   

I would say find a small project with only a few colors and try the thread for yourself.Each stitcher is different.For example, people will tell you how much they love DMC and I just posted a LONG post about why I hate it.Each person is different and it really is personal if you have been stitching long enough.   But I will say I am NOT teaching my niece on DMC.

I have used Sullivans floss. I find that it works as well as DMC and in my opinion frays a bit less and tends to tangle less when not using bees wax or Thread Heaven.

Hmm, I hadn't heard of Sullivan's, but then around here we can only get DMC or Anchor.
