then bought some nice verigated thread and quilted the quilt.
long story short....try out the threads before you commit to a whole quilt.
Thank you! Good info. I guess I'll go back to regular thread. This one is very fine and doesn't seem to be pokey, but my daughter has OCD and you could eat off her floors even with all her kids and dog, so I know it will be washed repeatedly.
