I am rapidly becoming a big fan of Robison-Anton’s
Twister Tweeds. The rayon
embroidery thread has two dyed colors twisted together to give a heathered
stitch appearance. It is perfect for embroidery fill areas where you want some
texture and dimension.
Unlike variegated thread, which
stitches in stripes, Twister Tweeds are more like dots of color. I first tried
it last month on another project. I used it instead of a brown for eye ring and
tail and love the results.
With pet designs half-price through
June 22, now is a great time to give this thread a try! Here are just a few of
the half-price pet designs that would coordinate well with this specialty
thread.
Ann the Gran has more than 20
colors of Twister Tweed available. Those that would be ideal for animals are
Grey, Black and Brown
Golds
Here are some designs that would work quite well:
Large Fill Areas like Go Bulldogs
Accent Fills like Doggy Bone
Applique
Feathered Edges like Kitty
Peering
Linework like I Love Cats
Text like Paw Prints
on Heart
Give Twister
Tweeds a try and make your pet embroidery come to life!
