Embroidery thread / floss made in USA

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I'm making tons of friendship bracelets with my little ones! joy.gif

The stash of floss I just got was made in cHina eyesroll.gif

I was wondering ... Has anyone found a source for floss that is other than MIC? I emailed DMC to see where theirs is made ... No answer. Google search didn't give me any sources.

I'm concerned with a lot of handling and wearing by my little ones and the dyes coming off ... Perhaps some nasty chems?

Thx:o

Being made in the US wouldnt change that embroidery floss is dyed with dye.... 

 

Made in china doesnt automatically = bad.   

 

I've never had an issue with dye coming off, even when wet.

I think you're right.  We've been working with it for several weeks now, the stuff made in China, and wet or dry, it's really colorfast.  

 

I just have to accept that the modern age has a lot of toxins, and you can't control everything or worry about it.
