Lucky GAL! I have some of your Thread. I WILL NOT SAY ALL OF IT, but they are better than today, you just have to check it, Some will made out of 100% cotton, some can be 100% Silk or Raw Silk, or Mixed with other fiber or Material that they make the thread. You can use for BASTING and/or Embroidery, decoration for applique, so I will say, if you are a quilter and also crafter, I will hold on to it, beside Fabric, even thread are expensive TODAY! You can use the Transfer for labels
