Here are just a few.
USA, England, Scotland, Ireland, Spain, Romania, China, France, Greece, Italy, Australia, South Africa, Denmark, Japan, New Zealand, Mexico and I am sure I have missed many more. Today with the access to the world through the internet, purchasing threads overseas is just a mouse click away.
Below are some photos of threads in my collection. Hope they inspire you to search them out and try them for yourself in your next project.

I have included web addresses in some, but a search on the names will find most and searching is half the fun. If you click on the photo it will enlarge enough to be able to read some of the tags attached to the threads.
Happy stitching, bye for now, Carol
