1 2 3 stitch sent Anchor floss that was perfect. I received wonderful
service for 6 skeins of floss. And its cheaper than other shops.

Glad to hear it. I've preferred Anchor for many years now - they seem to
have a wider range of color graduations, and I like the feel of it. A shop
I used in Albuquerque in the 90s had a piece they'd stitched in both DMC and
again in Anchor. The pieces sat on top of the floss cabinets - and
stitchers could look at them, and then choose which floss they preferred!
DMC is more common here, but I've kind of stuck with my Anchor bias, though
of course I have plenty of DMC, as well.
