My usual go-to colors (cream, dark grey, white, and black) just did not work on a specific project. I’ve become a bit spoiled; big box store thread simply frustrates me now. I decided to get a lighter grey thread and now am thinking I should have purchased two spools. I reach for this more often than the others. In general, the only times I match thread color to a project are when someone else is buying the spools. It keeps my funds available for other things and I don’t have to deal with storing tons of thread.
This one is a truly lovely addition to the rotation.
