Description

The listing, TIERED auction of 350+ Embroidery Floss Cross Stitch Thread has ended.

Your choice of colors, and how many you get will be counted on the closure of the auction.

Every color that is on stitcher's compucard (at least at the time that my mom logged this) is here!

The auction will start off with four colors of your choice.
For every 300 credits, I will add TWO (2) more, of your choice. That is only 150 credits per Floss / Thread spool.
So, the more credits, the more thread you get.

Each spool is individually numbered. Some do have more thread on it than others, but all of them are pretty full. They all are 6 count and name brand.
These were my mom's, and she was very picky about the thread that she used....
In one of the last pictures, there are brand new threads, that she did not put on the spools yet. They are DMC Mouline Special & Mouline Standard - 8.75 yards. I would assume that this is what is also on the spools.

As this auction goes along, I will also be adding in bonuses...
If I get a lot of fans, watchers, quick bidders... those kind of things - So watch for those!

I do have a few individual auctions going on... so take a look...
Let's make this fun!

Thank you.

F&W&Bidding I am also wondering what it takes to get it all. I have just starting this hobby. Since I am retired,. disabled, widowed, and bored, I thought this would be good to keep my hands busy. (needlepoint, that is). Something like this would be ideal for me.. Great auction. Good Luck

If you would like to consider the whole lot, and are the winner - then we can take a look at how much thread is left after the auction and decide on a GIN for the rest.

Jul 8th, 2014 at 5:42:16 AM PDT by

Anyone want to help out our friend here and give her a boost by bidding? Thanks Marmeanie to your dedication to this. I hope you win a ton!

Jul 8th, 2014 at 11:17:06 AM PDT by

if the bidding goes beyond the thread count what will you be adding if anything? thinking maybe a hoop? lol thanks for an awesome auction. watching intensely. I need to replace my stash....(fire).

Jul 6th, 2014 at 2:35:08 PM PDT by

That would be awesome if it gets to that. And yes, I would definitely add bonuses. Though they may not be needle craft related, they would be craft related - possible new yarn, fabric remnants, charms, but I would ensure the winner is rewarded! Thank you for your post!

Jul 7th, 2014 at 9:05:56 AM PDT by

idea for you, I use the same boxes for my threads. At 125 threads add a box. Would make the condition of thread better than putting in a bag to get tangled. Also that is about what a box holds. If winner gets to 125 threads, let them pick a box, as seen in picture. If your mom put them in according to number, the winner will know which box they want. Just thoughts. Saves you a lot of work.

Jul 6th, 2014 at 3:39:12 AM PDT by

Great IDEA! That now includes an organized box with each 125 count the auction gets to.... Thanks Marmeanie... even though the third box is not full, with the extra that I have and the new threads that are not spooled, those would make up well enough also, incase anyone was curious how that would work with #3.

Great Listing! F&w

Jul 5th, 2014 at 4:41:17 PM PDT by

Thank you! fanned you back!

Jul 5th, 2014 at 9:45:22 PM PDT by

Interested in what it would take for everything as well

Jul 5th, 2014 at 3:26:12 PM PDT by

Same goes for any winner - If you would like to consider the whole lot, and are the winner - then we can take a look at how much thread is left after the auction and decide on a GIN for the rest. thank you for your interest.

Your Mom kept her thread collection in nice order and condition! I hope whom ever wins this appreciates all the work it took her to do all that!
