Painters Threads Gimp

Painters Threads GIMP

Playing with colour, this beautiful hand dyed thread is created by tightly winding a lustrous rayon (viscose) thread around a core of cotton threads. GIMP is essentially a decorative cord, making it ideal for couching. It adds a whole new dimension to creative, textured embroidery and is perfect for creating beautiful three-dimensional effects with striking French Knots and elegant Bullion Knots.

Painters Threads is renowned for its beautifully hand dyed threads and ribbons with their distinctive colour variations. Because every thread is individually hand dyed, slight differences in shade and colour naturally occur. This makes every item unique, while the subtle colour transitions add depth, character and an artisanal touch to embroidery and other textile projects.
