Call me success story! Just listen; 1992 School of Design at North Carolina State University, two years later Miranda Weeks McGahey dies 400 yards a week, 11 years later with a team of more than 10 people, she dies several tenth of thousand yards a day! She created year after year more than 587 colors/fibers combinations, all with rich, consistent and vibrant colors.
With the experience gained over time and carefully kept in her “ cook book”, Miranda produces the same color for a variety of fibers. And when creating new colors, probably the most exiting moment in the life of a thread, Miranda feel the same enthusiasm as when she started her business. She gets her inspiration from her favorite colors palette or from designers and stitchers. And she is always thrilled when somebody tells her she enjoyed working with her threads.
You can have a look at the catalog, easy to print but a bit cumbersome to look at (pdf files to download). The product line is large, starting with the embroidery floss, hand over-dyed 6 strand cotton threads with subtle colors that blend naturally and are very nice to stitch since they are pliable. You will discover also a large palette a pearl cotton coming in 3 sizes (3,5,8). The company also dies 100% cotton sewing threads fit for hand or machine sewing. Really neat for quilting. And do not forget to have a look at their 100% wool hand dyed fabrics totally colorfast, and linen fabric (30 colors) and weavers cloth (10 colors).
Since computer screen cannot really render the colors,touch and feel of their great products (wholesale only), my advice is to get the address of a retailer and meet their products for real. It is much more sensual!
