Very Nice! I have been thinking about ordering some some thread from RoyalWood, How is it compared to Maine thread?

Thanks all!

@veedub3 - Its good. I use Maine Thread a lot too because its cheap and easy to get but the Royalwood is much nicer. Its a lot smoother and more uniform.

That is very nice. I like the design of that one.

What ply thread and color is that?

Thanks for your input on the thread. I was told that the Royalwood thread is Waxed Irish Linen thread, so that may have something to do with it being a lot smoother, as opposed to the waxed poly cord that Maine Thread sells. I use Maine thread a lot too, and have been procrastinating for several years on getting some thread from RoyalWood but never pulled the trigger. I did get some Tiger thread in on Thursday, but I haven't tried it. Just looking for a good thread that's easy to come by and won't break the bank.

Thanks for that information. I'm going to go ahead and order some.
