I'm in the UK and find Rainbow silks at www.rainbow silks.co.uk a great resource, also there's Dale again at www.thethreadstudio.com - both of those should ship to the States and Dale's Surface Tension book is great - if you look at the link to online workshops she has a new Embellisher workshop starting soon and she has a great chat group to back it up where you can "meet" all sorts of great embellishing people and no doubt others in your country who could help with more local resources maybe - could be American members in this group who could help?
We call rovings wool tops here just to confuse things.
The online group www.fibre and stitch.com recommend a site called www.joggles.com which looks great for supplies and is in the States.
Happy hunting!

All the best

Like you I bought an embellisher before I knew its capabilities. However; I did an internet course with Dale, called Embellish Stitch and Enrich. It was great fun and I learnt a lot about the machines capabilities. I don't know if Dale will run the course again, but failing that dale also wrote a book "SURFACE TENSION' which Iam sure that you can buy through her shop.Her e-mail for the shop is www.thethreadstudio.com
Hope this is of help to you,
Regards Bev
