Lots of embroidery machine threads

[incywincy]

I have been given a hugh box of embroidery (machine) threads - ranging from 200m-5000m in size.
Now I've sorted through them as some were very tangled and messed up, but most are perfect ~ 3/4 - full of thread.

I'm going to give the smaller ones to my local school to use. But would anyone on here be interested in having some?
I have every colour possible and about 50-60 reels!!

:p
PM me if your interested - I don't want anything for them. Would just want to cover my P&P costs.

It's proper embroidery machine thread - so very thin madeira/janome etc

I'm just about to add an image of them to flickr so you can see what the colours are.

Incy .... don't worry about sending me any .... I though it was going to be the thick embroidery stuff ..... you know, "skeins" I think they're called.

I've already got quite a bit of machine embroidery thread.

Clare - sorry! All clear now. :p

JB - That's fine. I thought you might have been thinking of hand embroidery threads when you mentioned your hearts. This is the very thin thread designed for embroidery machines.

Do you think these would work OK in "normal" sewing machines?

Yes, they work fine - just show up a bit finer than normal thread.

Feel free to add notes to ones you like. As said before - I don't want anything for them, just the money to cover p&p


Just hope my darling daughter doesn't come along and start playing with them! (hehe)
