Machine quilting thread?

Post by TooMuchFabric » Fri May 10, 2013 1:48 pm

My quilting system is very picky about thread. I was wondering what brands of thread others had success with.

Thank you. I have had success with the Signature as well. I haven't tried the King Tut.

I like to use King Tut thread, and I also get good results with Golden Threads thread.

I've used all kinds of thread with my quilting machine. Last year at the quilt show someone suggested I try Glide. I did and I love it.

I use King Tut/SoFine combination or SoFine/SoFine combination.

I just picked up some Omni thread that was recommended.

I did try Signature but my LA did not like it at all so I use it to piece.

ENJOY!!!
