Wonderful tips, thank you all, I always dread when I have to use metallic thread though I love it on the pattern, maybe these tips will help me have "less waste" hugs Sher:D:D

Thank you for the tips.  I am currently working with metalic threads and am using 1 thread to 2 threads of cotton color and love the shimmering effect on the piece.  I am finding it is better to work with smaller pieces so they dont fray after being pulled through the fabric over and over.  But the results are well worth it.
