Victoria Sampler's Hierloom Christmas sampler
I was just wondering if any of you had done this sampler in the reds and
greens and if you have, did you run out of the medium green threads. I have just completed the holly section with about 3.5 lengths of the med green left and I just KNOW there won't be enough. If you did run out, what did you do? -- remove "nospam" to reply |

NOTE: It has come to our attention that the 2 Accessory Packs for Heirloom Christmas Sampler are each short 1 yard of: Au Ver a Soie #1745 for the Heirloom Christmas Rose and Teal colors, or the Au Ver a Soie #5024 for the Traditional Red and Green colors. We found out about this shortage few days ago, thanks to a kind shopowner who was stitching a model for her shop! We have just sent all participating shops the additional green and/or teal threads for any Heirloom Accessory Packs they bought from us in January. It should take about 2 weeks for them to receive the extra green and/or teal silk threads through the mail. So if you have bought an Heirloom Christmas Accessory Pack of either colour from a shop, please contact them in a few weeks, as they will be able to give you the extra yard you might need. If you have bought your Heirloom Christmas Accessory Packs directly from our online Boutique in January, you will receive them directly to your mailing address.

I have finished stitching that portion of the sampler, although I still have
to do the ribbons and some of the beads. I didn't run out of any of the threads, because I had received the new accessory pack. Do contact whomever you purchased the pack from and ask them. If all else fails, it's a popular name brand fiber that you could always add to your stash!

Hi Addie,
Just send them an e-amil and they will be happy to send you more thread. They are a very friendly and helpful company. :-) The addy is or HTH Ginger I was just wondering if any of you had done this sampler in the reds and greens and if you have, did you run out of the medium green threads.

What I usually do is match the kit threads with my stash of threads (DMC or
Anchor). If I can find a perfect match, I will stitch with the kit floss and then use my own if I run out. If I can't find an exact match, I toss the kit thread and use my own closest match. Rhea from KY, USA |

Shortly after Heirloom Christmas came out they discovered that the thread packs
had been shorted on some of the threads. Shops were notified and provided extra of the threads that were short. Either contact the shop you purchased the thread pack from to see if they have the extra thread or e-mail Victoria sampler at: Bonnie |
