Thread Heaven

[Icelandic Hitman]

Does anybody else here use it?

I just started and its worth it. I've always been a bit rouge using 90cm lengths folded in 2, but with thread heaven I've done entire projects in them with out a single knot, tangle.

Yep! I've been plugging it here on the boards for a while now! It's really very useful.

That's great it worked for someone else! I started using it once on a My Little Pony Fluttershy project I was halfway through and about screamed...I was working on the yellow in the face and the further I got the darker the yellow got. Thought it was just dirty but it didn't come out and I had to pull out half of my stitches. Turns out a lot of people who use it suggest getting two, one for light colors and one for dark...I was using DMC thread but unbeknownst to me it picked up some of the black dye from it and ruined the yellow I was stitching. I haven't used it since given how much hell it put me through, but when I was using it I did love how nice it was! Maybe it just works best on metallics or the like.

Or just be cheap like me and pull it through the front for darks and back for lights.

I've been doing some Christmas stitching with metallic threads and using Thread Heaven on the metallics made it so much easier - far less knots and snags and it frayed less too.

Found it on offer, and used it for some metallic threads - much easier to manage! Only problem is that I want to use more metallic threads now...
