    have used Anchor cotton for this particular project, all supplied by Mt Eliza Needlework, and there has always been ample supply if I run out.

    I bought some extra cotton to redo a design I already owned and had started but did not have enough cotton to finish. I ordered the assigned Anchor brand cotton numbers from the design only to find that Anchor has seemingly changed some of their colours slightly since I last completed the design 8 years ago. As a result my options were to have noticeable patches where the colour changes, unpick the entire thing, or buy a new Aida and start again. I chose the latter option and now I’ll just have to wait and see if the new cotton I purchased will stretch far enough to complete the entire design. Obviously not your fault the colours have changed, it just seems pointless to have cotton numbers and change their assigned matching colours.
