When you purchase this item, you’ll receive five yards each of new old stock silk embroidery thread in pink, yellow, and light blue. We’re pretty sure this thread - on original industrial spools - dates back to the 1940s, when greeting cards were sometimes embroidered for effect. Thread is still plenty strong, and if you’ve been getting into (or pondering) hand stitched greeting cards - or visible mending - this stuff’s a gorgeous thread option!

    This is climate-competent commerce, and we talk a bit more about each of these strategies on our 'official' shipping policy page:

    The Fine Print 
  • Proactive Satisfaction + Refunds

    We have adopted a 'generally generous' approach to fulfilling many of our product listings, as sending a wee bit extra can avoid costly errors & 'fix it' shipments (besides, we find most folks appreciate the occasional freebie).

    .

    That said, if you would prefer to avoid the extras, we will gladly rightsize or downsize your order on request (product price would remain the same because more labor + less product = wash). If you prefer this option, please include a detailed order note to specify the quantity you wish to recieve (i.e. 'please send precise count of 7 for XYZ product').

    .

    As a rule, we discourage returns - but we also don't abide crappy customer experiences. To initiate issue resolution in the event that we miss the boat with your order (gaps happen!), head to our refund policy page (linked here - and at the bottom of any page) to get started.
