DMC 5628-310 Six Strand Embroidery Cotton, 500gm, Black

I know it says 500gm, but until you see it in person, you dont really GET how much that is. This will last you for the rest of your life. Even if you only stitch in black! Its amazing!

I use a lot of black embroidery floss - lately, I have bee using it to hand=quilt old t-shirts into squares. I started out just using it to outline the black coloring book lines on a 20-yr-old shirt that I loved. Made the design pop right back out again. Then I started taking others, and using those black edging lines to make quilt squares, to make a quilt out of these shirts I dont really where but are precious. So I have been using a lot of it, which means going to buy it, then winding it on those little plastic squares you have to use unless you want your floss to get all tangles. THIS solved so many problems. Seems to be just the same DMC quality, too.

This is a cross stitchers dream! Almost all of my patterns have black (310) in them and I run out all the time. When I saw this it was like wow, really over 2000 yards of floss?! Awesome!! I got it in the mail and when I opened it I was thrilled! This will save me money and time from running back and forth to the store when I run out. I will be buying this again when I start running low, which thanks to over 2000 yards of floss will be awhile!!

Would need a bigger qty for what Im using it for but its better than d 100 g cones Also needed yellow but couldnt find the shade i needed.Had to get it somewhere else

So convenient! I am a fan of large B&W patterns and go through a lot of black anyway. This will not only save me some money, but time as well. I will be buying this again.

Be aware that this is 1.3 MILES of DMC 310. Why they list it by the weight, we will never know. It would be more helpful if they would list it by the yardage/meters. It is not the smaller cone. This is the one that is as big as your head. I have already told my adult children that Im leaving it in my will to them. So, if you need more DMC 310 that you will probably use in your lifetime, this is the one you want to order. Do not order this if you have underlying health conditions that make you easily startled by enormous cones of floss. I have affectionately nicknamed mine the Cone of DOOM!

I am working on a large project with a lot of black and this was prefect.

Great value
