We carry a huge
selection of threads on our walls covered with
thread - we call it our "wall of thread". If we
don't have the thread you are looking for we might
be able to special order it. Some threads require
a minimum purchase as many thread companies
require us to order a minimum number of each
color.
We can also obtain hanks in many
threads or a cone in the case of some Rainbow Gallery threads, so that if you need a larger quantity of a
dye lot you don't have worry about mixing and
matching. Looking at and touching a hank of Florimell,
Waterlilies, Soie d'Alger, Soie Cristale
or Needlepoint Inc. Silk is an experience
we know you'll enjoy.
We carry all the threads made by AuVer à Soie® for the needlework market: Soie d' Alger, Soie 100/3, Soie Goblein, Soie
Perlee, Soie Ovale, Soie de Paris, Soie Surfine, Fine Aubusson Wool & Silk Trame.
AuVer à Soie® has 2 color systems. The main thread has the most colors and the other threads will use the same numbers but there won't be as many colors available in those lines. The color numbers are different between the 2 systems and there is no overlap.
- Soie d'Alger - includes Soie de Paris, Soie Gobelins, Soie Ovale, Silk Trame & Soie Chenille
- Soie 100/3 - includes Soie Perlee and Soie Surfine
Our spooled threads include Trebizond,
Bijoux, & Accentuate which are
housed in acrylic cabinets so you can find these
threads much easier.
Below is a
basic list of our threads. We routinely get new
colors of the threads we carry so if you're
looking for the latest color of a line, just
contact us or check out the on-line
thread catalog for up-to-date color
listings. Given our inventory it's impossible to
have every single thread or ribbon in stock all
the time. These are the items we normally carry or
can special order.

In April 2024, Rainbow Gallery purchased Kreinik. The equipment has been moved to Burbank, CA where Rainbow Gallery is located and manufacturing will take place there. Doug Kreinik has retired but will continue to work with RG for the forseeable future on the transition. Most Kreinik products will continue to be manufactured but items that Kreinik did not make may be discontinued as supplies run out (e.g. acid-free tissue, Koma tool, etc.). During the next few months it will likely take longer to get Kreinik threads if the distributors are out of stock while production in CA ramps up.
