Came home to a message on the answering machine from LNS. Seems the light gray Medici (#8329) I need for the Marbek Nativity (it's used on the sheep) is supposedly no longer available.
Does anyone know where I CAN get a skein? I'm sure I won't need more than that.
Thread Express lists light gray as #8380 and they have it in stock. I would be tempted to call Denise at Threadneedlestreet.com and see what she has in stock if it were me looking.

Slight stupid moment - turns out that the specified color is actually cream (why I was so sure it was light gray I have no idea). Anyway, I just dropped them an e-mail. Thanks for the heads-up!
I have a half skein of cream Medici that was used for the MarBek Snow Angel, but I don't know the number. I can just send it with the rest of the stuff, if you want. I will never use it.

If it's the right color or even close, sure. There isn't a huge amount called for (one skein is specified on the supply list). Thanks!
I have a whole skein left from when I did the Marbek nativity. Send me your address and I will mail it to you. (I have no use for it, as I don't use that type of thread for anything else.)
