Dancing with color, this fabulous hand painted product is constructed by tightly winding a rayon (viscose) thread around a core of cotton threads.  Gimp is essentially a cord, making it ideal for couching. Gimp takes creative, textural stitching to a whole new level- create 3-D effects with fabulous French Knots or Bullion Knot 'coils'.
Because of their special dyeing technique, dye lots can differ greatly from the product photographed.
