@thegothics OH YESH I LUVE PEARL COTTON FROM DMC - it’s just... They cost a lot... I started to use J.&P. Coats buuuuuuut... You only get the small 8m/8.75yd skeins (as far as I figured it out) -it never broke in my hands so far, but it’s bleeding out the color like crazy - and that stresses me out - so I stocked my thread budget a little bit up and ordered some Loops and Threads (just 250skeins - totally normal to buy that much thread *caught caught*) - and I don’t have any guarantee that they won’t bleed, but conditioning does usually help, so in the worst case I’ll keep doing that...

I usually use DMC embroidery floss, but when I first started to make bracelets I used prism thread, which is a lot stiffer and a bit harder to work with. I prefer to use DMC though!

I mostly use DMC. I get it from Micheals but I generally don’t buy it without some kind of discount. Taking the survey is a good way to get 25% off your next in store purchase. I’ve also used J&P Coats which is nice, but maybe a little thicker than DMC and I’m not sure if they can be purchased individually, but that’s the only negative thing I have to say about it.

I don't use any thread brand in particular, I just use thread from Walmart in like a 180 pack for like 10 bucks and it works just as well as DMC, Hoped it helped! I just like to keep things quality but cheap, and this tread works amazing for that!

I personally use DMC and also with threads. But long time ago I shifted to machine embroidery it is efficient and convenient.

I don’t use embroidery floss. I use normal sewing thread, then I cut four strands then I tie them together, but I’m thinking about getting craft string.
