We're thrilled to offer a thread club from French silk thread merchants Au Ver a Soie!  These beautiful stranded silk threads come in 5 metre skeins with 7 strands and can be used for all embroidery projects. The luminosity of the hand-dyed silk is second to none and will add a new level of beauty to your work. Conversion charts are readily available for most common stranded cotton brands to Soie d'Alger.

For the 12 Threads per month club you'll build a collection of 72 silk stranded threads  hand picked by the Forage team and Nathalie, co-owner and descendant of the company founder. You'll receive:

*12 beautiful stranded silk threads per month for 6 months

*A free PDF copy of our "Postage Stamp Embroideries" pattern booklet with your 3rd monthly mailout. 

*A free Forage printed linen sampler featured in the pattern book with your 6th monthly mailout.

*Price includes postage.

Here is what Au Ver a Soie say about the thread: "This silk is loosely plyed and can be split easily. The name "Alger" refers to a special domestic process.
It is made of the best quality spun silk (called strusas)which gives it an unrivalled regularity, lustrous and softness. The thread does not snarl in the needle and has a good tensile strength. It resists also very well to abrasion. We make great care, great pains to see that this product is properly made. It is considered as a reference thread in all needlework activities. Dyed in skeins to guarantee an homogeneous colour."

PLEASE NOTE: YOU ARE MAKING THE FIRST PAYMENT OF THIS THREAD CLUB IN ADVANCE.  THE FIRST PACK WILL BE MAILED OUT IN THE LAST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER DUE TO SUMMER HOLIDAYS IN FRANCE FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST. You will then be billed each month in advance of the next thread delivery.  Eg: pay in August for September delivery, pay in September for October delivery etc.

(TREAT YOURSELF: If you just can't wait, go to the "I want it all" option in the Subscriptions section: You'll get all 72 threads and both free gifts in one package as well as saving AUD$80)
