Very tricky business. I want to do them in Renaissance wool, (which is totally delicious but pricey to get to Australia) but i have a cheap supplier of the appletons wool which is not quite as nice.
However i have been told (by a fellow stitcher) that if it is worth doing, it is worth doing properly and to splurge on the beautiful wool. I am beginning to agree with her.

The Renaissance thread works like a dream.
