For hand embroidery I have always used DMC floss. I have done several fusible applique quilts with buttonhole stitch done by hand and I have never had a problem with the colors running. I have always used DMC for my hand stitched crazy quilting too. I love all the beautiful colors and the sheen.

I'm using Presencia because when I was in a class that is whay my instructor told me to use. I don't like having to seperate the DMC floss into the appropriate number of strands--always knots up on me.

I'm a long-time DMC girl, too. Been using it since my mom taught me to embroider in the 60's (yes, I am "old")! DMC also has other weights that work but I can't remember right now the names. sheesh. tgif!
