Variegated Rayon thread??

Hi Guys,
Does anyone have a source for red/white/green variegated RAYON thread? I
have some YLI cotton but I would really like some rayon. I am finally starting
to use the embroidery function on my machine and want to embroider the SMDGDs
name on some tops for Christmas! I can try the quilting thread I have but it's
100% cotton and doesn't look quite a purty as the rayon does! Speaking of
which -- the cotton that is -- I have this itty bitty spool of only 200 yds and
would LOVE to find something larger but haven't had any luck tracking any of it
down. Does anyone know of a source for a *larger* cone of the r/w/g variegated
cotton thread?? All help and suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks &
CiaoMeow ^;;^

I don't know if they have the colours you're looking for, but try
www.valdani.com they have large cones and various weights. Nayy just a
very satisfied customer.

Boy, you don't want much, do you?

http://www.kmquiltingsupply.com/thre...edcolors.shtml is a
link to larger cones of cotton. Color M02 looks to be red/white/green in my
color chart, and comes in 3000 yard cones.

http://www.kmquiltingsupply.com/thre...escolors.shtml is a
link to a red/white/green trilobal polyester (high sheen, looks like rayon,
but much stronger, so it doesn't break all the time). Again, color M02 looks
to be red/white/green. The cones are 2,000 yards. Pixelles is my current
favorite decorative thread -- I can't say enough good things about it.

http://www.kmquiltingsupply.com/thre...wscolors.shtml or
http://www.columbiariverquilting.com...lor_chart.html is a
link to a red/white/green high sheen polyester. Color 824 is
red/white/green, and the cones are 2,000 yards.

For some strange reason, my non-wholesale suppliers aren't carrying this one
http://www.superiorthreads.com/produ...t=Poly+Quilter ,
but color 324 is a red/white/green poly. Cones are 2,000 yards.

I've had very good luck with Kingsmen and Columbia River -- no minimum, and
orders usually go out the same or next day. (NAYY) Pricing is also pretty
competitive.

Hope that helps.
