Society of Soie Surfine...when only the finest will do!
We are thrilled to be one of just 5 shops in the Society of Soie Surfine!
We are a cooperative of five needlework shops dedicated
to the finest in counted-thread supplies. And by finest we do mean very fine count linens and the finest of threads.
We love working on and supplying our customers with high-count linens and have searched for a thread that works well on 40 and 45 count linen. And we've found it in Au ver á Soie's Soie Surfine. Soie Surfine is a 130/2 twisted silk thread that
stitches like a dream - as smooth as...silk!
We have arranged with Gloriana Threads to hand-dye Soie Surfine exclusive for our Society of Soie Surfine Member Shops and as a stitcher you can become a Society Subscriber by contacting one our Society members and purchasing a subscription to the Society. Our hand-dyed Soie Surfine threads are limited editions and available only through the Society - no one else will have them.
Our first subscription (Series #1) will be available starting this month and will last for 6 months. We will be featuring 5 thread colors and 1 fabric during the six months. Our first thread color is called Carmine Rose and
is a lovely Red/Rose tone-on-tone color. It comes in a 100 yd twisted skein packaged in a crystal clear bag you can put on a ring to organize your subscription threads.
The fabric will be a custom color dyed for us by Lakeside Linens and will be available in 40 or 45 count during the series. It is coordinated to go with the 5 thread colors we have picked for the series. The fabric will be approximately 18x12 in size, enough for some fine
design use. Additional yardage can be ordered by Subscribers during Series #1.
While we do not currently have any designs that call for this limited edition thread and fabric, we are investigating having a design created for it and will let
Subscribers know how that comes along. But we know everyone has lovely designs that call out for some special thread and fabric so we're sure our Series #1 subscription will find great designs to be paired with.
Series #1 subscriptions are $20.95 for each of 6 months and entitle Society Subscribers to 1 skein each of the 5 thread colors and one piece of 40 or 45 count fabric (approx. 18x12). Subscriptions are limited so sign-up now
to ensure your receipt of these unique threads and fabric.
