The inaugural Australasian Embroidery Convention is being held at the Brisbane Convention Centre on February 21 - 23, 2020 with traditional and machine embroidery classes with international and local tutors. See all the details of the Convention at www.embroideryconvention.com.au
You’ll find Colour Streams at Stand 4 in the expo where retailers from across Australia will be selling all sorts of treasures!
....and we are so excited that, after months of planning and testing, Colour Streams will be launching our new range of Egyptian Cotton Threads at the Convention.
The new threads will be available in a 6-stranded cotton we've called Cotto Strands (available in a 10 metre skein) and a Perle 8 thread we've called Rana (available in a 15 metre skein). Cotto Strands and Rana will be available in the same fabulous colours as our beautiful silk threads and ribbons.
Retailers have started ordering the cotton threads and they will also be available through our website, www.colourstreams.com.au by the end of February.
We're also thrilled that Colour Streams founder, Robyn Alexander, will be joining us for the show!
Please drop by to see Chris and Robyn and to see our fabulous new threads!
Comments will be approved before showing up.
Colour Streams are thrilled to announce the launch of our new cotton threads, Rana and Cotto Strands. Officially launching at the Australasian Embroidery Convention in Brisbane in late February, both threads are the highest quality Egyptian cotton that have been hand-dyed in Colour Stream’s unique colours. Rana and Cotto Strands are available to order now.
Rana is similar to Perle 8 and is a high twist, low lustre thread that is suitable for all embroidery and is excellent for hand quilting. The RRP price of Rana is $6.00.
Cotto Strands is a 6 stranded high twist, low lustre thread that is easily split. The RRP price of Cotto Strands is $ 6.00.
We're offering both Rana and Cotto Strands to ourncustomers, at an introductory price of $ 5.00 per skein. This price will be available until April 30 when the price will revert to $ 6.00 per skein.
We are so excited that Colour Streams is hosting the incredible textile artist Lorraine Turner on 15 – 16 August 2020. The 2-day workshop will be held on wonderful Macleay Island just off Brisbane in beautiful Moreton Bay. Given that August is during the annual whale migration along our eastern coast, we believe it is very fitting that the textile collage workshop will be creating this stunning humpback whale - Whale of a Good Time.
