Linen thread in UK

[zuludog]

I have found a supplier of linen thread in Britain. It is run by a German lady, Hilke Kurzke; she stocks linen thread from several European manufacturers, including Fil au Chinois

You can order as little as 1 X 5 metres of thread, then various samples and variety packs, up to full reels; there is a wide range of colours available

Search Google for 'buchertiger supplies' or http://kurzke.co.uk

She is pleasant & helpful, with a quick response & delivery time.

I have bought from Hilke she is indeed a good seller.

With regard to Lin Cable if you want a couple of reels then it is worth contacting Mando in Paris they sell at wholesale prices to ordinary leatherworkers without a minimum purchase. I bought from them recently and paid under 15 euro for 332 they have a web site but you have to email for prices. but be aware they only accept bank transfer for payments and they also charge for delivery.
