A few weeks ago, completely out of the blue and unexpected, these two Sylko threads arrived in the post.
They are perfect, especially the white one, with its very-hard-to-tangle-me waxiness.
I had previously shown a reel of my ancient, and favourite, lilac Sylko on Instagram. Trudi, the poster of said threads, commented on its beauty. I responded by telling her how sad (and possibly deceased) I would be when it finally comes to an end, prompting her to search her mother’s old sewing box for something similar.
This, by the way, is typical of Trudi Murray. I have never met her in person, but she is kind and compassionate. Not just because of this thread thing, but in the way she conducts herself on the social media. With dignity.
Trudi’s mother died way too early.
The ‘grubby’ top layer of the white thread is the most precious bit.

What a lovely thing to do! I’ll keep an eye out for what you do with them! x
Making a couple of small and relatively quick (by my standards) pieces.
Just tried to look at your blog, seems to be a glitch. Could be me??
Love this sentiment. And the end cause.
Yes. Thank you
A very kind thing. I am smiling.
Yes, she is like you. I haven’t forgotten about my side of the deal, by the way
Thank you. I am glad we are friends through this blog world, and you’ve done plenty for me, more than you know.
