I was thinking that since it is made specifically for high speed sewing that maybe it would work for machine quilting.
The thread I have now is 100% cotton which from what I have been reading is the thread that most FMQ use.
Just make sure you are using a good quality serger thread. There are cheap ones out there and they don't hold up. Serger thread doesn't fuzz (or lint) like regular thread, but most of my serger thread has a polyester core to make it strong. Try it and see if it works for you.
