I really like the new Lizbeth thread. This is size 20 in color #147. It is very smooth and easy to tat and retrotat. It will never replace the beautiful hand dyed threads from our group, but it is nice.
Hand dyed threads are something different, with the personality of the maker somehow imbued. I don't think commercially dyed threads will ever truly compete, but there are some very nice ones out there. I like the Lizbeth threads, but very few of the variegateds appeal to me worked up...so far. I love the way it tats up stitch-wise tho so with solids, I'm more than pleased with them.
Very pretty! I agree with you... Lizbeth is very nice, but will never replace HDT!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason this picture is making me hungry...LOL! I guess I better go eat breakfast. As always your tatting is beautiful Lala!
