Title: Source on supplies?
Post by: Gilligan on March 15, 2012, 02:34:45 PM

I have used AllStitch but I'm looking for some alternatives... need to place a small order of some things and Allstitch just doesn't have what I could use to fill out the order (got to get that free shipping!) ;)

That's the thing... specific isn't what I need.

I NEED a couple of spools of 60 weight and some small needles (I may pick those up locally as I don't need 100 of them).  I'd also would pick up a tension gauge since I'm filling out the order.  Probably a color card or two (swatch book).  Maybe a couple of pairs of snips... just some different things to fill out the order because ordering a couple of spools of thread alone just doesn't make sense.

There is no such thing as free shipping from any where. They are getting paid for it one way or another.

I understand they might have a minimum... I'm ok with that... I usually fill out the order with other supplies till I hit that mark... I'll use them up eventually!
