My niece and I stopped at Long Creek Mills on out way out of town. They had GREAT prices on embroidery thread :lol: I got the smaller spools for $1.50 each, except for the metallic and variegated which where 3.50 They all have 1100 yards on the spool. The lady was wonderful and so helpful :thumbup:
