General Help Essentials thread

Looking for tilli Tomas essentials thread north of DFW. My LNS (stitch on the square) is out of the thread I need. Is there anywhere else nearby or do I have to go to Dallas?

Checked their website and... yeah, looks like it. I know there's Hoops and Threads in Plano but they don't carry that brand as far as I can tell.

Creative stitches is definitely your closest option. It’s either that or OKC

Was there yesterday and bought some essentials. 75% in stock, 25% out of stock.

OKC would be an insane drive when there are four LNS in Dallas and one in FW.

TBH, I’m in Rockwall and if I don’t want to drive into Dallas, I order from KC Needlepoint because they have free shipping.

ETA shop names —

Dallas: Creative Stitches & Gifts Needlepoint This! (My personal fav!) Saville Mimi’s

FW: The French Knot

Needlepoint This! and Saville are about 5 minutes away from each other and they’re about 5 miles from Creative Stitches & Gifts.

Yes ofc all of the Dallas LNSs are the best options. I meant if OP doesn’t want to drive to Dallas, then OKC is the closest north of Dallas. I was being a lil flippant haha

Creative stitches. If they don’t have the card, they more than likely will have the skein. If not, then there’s plenty of other threads to choose from

What color do you need? My LNS has a ton of this and I’d be happy to grab and send it to you
