One of the biggest factors making needlework so much fun these days is the wide variety of threads that are available. When it comes to variety and uniqueness, Rainbow Gallery is definitely the leader. This week, in a show sponsored by Sassy Jacks Stitchery (sassyjacksstitchery.com) and Avlea Mediterranean Folk Embroidery (avlea.life), we talk with Daniel Ravan, CEO of Rainbow Gallery. It’s an insightful discussion into how the company has dealt with the pandemic and the demands it has placed on needlework materials, how Rainbow Gallery produces threads, and what inspires the next offering. It’s always fun to learn about what’s behind the materials we enjoy using and it was enjoyable to learn how Rainbow Gallery produces their products.–Gary

A very interesting look at a wonderful thread manufacturer, thank you! One thing though – I could have sworn at some point towards the end Daniel said something like “there might be too many colours”. Surely he of all people must know that there is no such thing as too many colours 🙂 ???? (Especially in Splendor silk, which I love but which is quite difficult to get the whole range of here in the UK.)
