Studio Flax Linen Threads – Spring Collection

I have mentioned that I have found some really gorgeous pure linen thread, and this is my own selection of seasonal colours. It is funny but because I find some yellows a bit sharp for my palette, I can struggle to get a breath of spring in my threads. I think I managed it well in this selection, though I say so myself!

To find out more about these delectable skeins go to my Jotting or better still to the Studio Flax site.

Each box included 12 skeins of linen thread carefully dyed to replicate the colours from the original threads from the 1960s. Even with my son James’s lovely photographs you cannot see how the colours just sing from the boxes.

The threads are wrapped and boxed and include a chenille needle

The box measures 5 x 7in (12.5 x 17.5cm).

I have chosen an exclusive selection of threads for each season. Choose from Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer – or for the ultimate treat, the whole year in one Designer Collection.

I have known the lovely Tanya for some years and we have attempted to match diaries and meet, but in the end it was just after lockdown and the pandemic that we finally got together.

Tanya’s story is fascination and well worth a read. After I had wandered around her lovely Studio in Bristol, Tanya and I sat together and hand sorted threads and mix and matched to create the Seasonal Collection for you. Each box is beautifully put together with tissue and a chenille needle, so the only limit is your imagination…
