 For over 50 years, the Presencia Hilaturas and Finca brands have been available to Europe, South America and the Yucatan Peninsula. Presencia SA is based in Valencia, Spain and offers a complete line of cotton and rayon threads. All Presencia and Finca cotton threads are 100% Egyptian long staple cotton; all of the Finca Gold Label cotton and Presencia rayon threads are solid dyed making them wash-safe and bleach-safe, and have a particularly high luster. They are substantial in fiber and smooth and inspiring to the touch. Presencia USA was founded in 2002 to bring this superlative European product line to the United States and its territories.

I (Anita M. Smith) am very excited about this product.  It is wonderful and will fit through a size 10 Richard Hemming & Son large eye between needle available through Sunlight Cottage Industries .  I will slowly be introducing more patterns to show how they look with the Perle cotton.  My mother has just started using this product this last year with Jeannie's patterns.  She loves it and how easy it is to use compared to the floss that is available.  Her comments to me have been... "it is so easy to work with and keeps it's twist.  It lays nice and doesn't fray like embroidery floss does.  It is easy to thread and the colors are so bright and vibrant. I don't have to separate the threads and also worry about it bleeding. It is wonderful and I am enjoying working with it."  I have some of her work shown below that she did with this Perle Cotton using one of Jeannie Austin's patterns.

These blocks are available in the Comforters Album.
