I bought an autumn gold-rust variegated thread at JoAnn's to stitch in the ditch on my husband's quilt. It worked very nicely. There were a lot of fall colors in that quilt, and it blended beautifully with the backing.

What I'm confused about with variegated thread because the changes between colors are so subtle, or so far apart, that I can't really see the effect. Am I looking at something wrong, or expecting too much?

I usually order online but couldn't tell you the site or the kind of thread. All I know is my machine loves it. I have ordered King Tut from Superior Threads - expensive but wonderful thread. I have also ordered from Connecting thread, works fine - again, couldn't tell you what kind
my suggestion to you is try different kinds to find what your machine likes.
