I have not used this "light effects" floss, but cannot wait to try. Good quality and fast service

from United States on 01/05/2022 - Most important project
I love this product. Using it for my first granddaughters birth announcement!!!!

from United States on 03/03/2021 - very pretty
awesome thread. using both 4 and 2 strand embroidery, the texture does get a little sharp when doing cross-stitching. so it wouldn't be the best for things you want to touch (pillows, etc). but for my project, it was beautiful. also a little hard to work with. need to use shorter pieces. but worth it in the end.

Color is great, very sparkly and "true" gold (not green). A little hard to stitch with because the threads tend to unravel or tangle up on themselves.

from United States on 01/05/2020 - Bright and lovely
Hint to stop fraying at end, a drop of "fray-check" on the end, which is allowed to completely dry before using, will make life more easy. It helps not to make the tread too long, I keep it under 15 inches.

Colt description perfect and stitches look great!

from United States on 12/01/2017 - Metallic threads are still a pain
The product is fine, but it is a metallic thread and still behaves that way with it quick to unravel and knot. I wonder if beeswax would help.

from United States on 03/21/2016 - Light Effects Precious Metal - Light Gold
Love how it looks in my project. The sparkle really gives the project a better look that is better than the finish of regular thread. S/H is very fair and quick turn around. Love this Site!

from United States on 12/21/2015 - Worst experience ever!
Never ever again will I use metallic thread by DMC. I would rather spend more money on Kreinik.

from United States on 02/09/2015 - Extremely difficult to stitch with
I love the look of this, but it is not easy to stitch with. The strands are very, very stiff and tangle extremely easily.

from United States on 06/18/2014 - Good floss looks metallic but doesn't catch on fabric!
This is great stuff! Doesn't catch on everything like the metaklic threads, but gives stitches a definite metallic look.

from United States on 03/11/2014 - Best Place to Buy!
This particular thread was under another number on the patterns I had. I didn't know what to replace it with until I spoke with 123 stitch on the phone. When I call there is always someone very helpful to give assistance. Great company.

from United States on 09/23/2013 - Best Metallic Around!
Whenever I need anything cross stitch related, I go straight to 123. I always use DMC for my projects and since I live in the country, they always have what I need and ship it out very quickly.
