Which one is not 50wt?

Thanks for posting this question. I like their conclusion:
" Choose thread based on the type of fiber, look, feel, and thickness and not by the printed weight size. Trust your eyes and fingers more than the label. You'll get better results and be much happier with your selection. Choose fine threads to blend and medium and heavier threads to show."

Unless I am doing hand embroidery, this is what I want from thread: (1) color match or contrast depending on what I'm sewing; (2) no damage to the fabric, therefore no "invisible" thread; (3) hold the fabric together for as long as the sewn item is viable and (4) be something I can pay for.
Coats and Clark meets all my criteria. Blessings to all of you who have other criteria and mey the thread fairy keep your seams straight and strong. froggyinexas
