This is the first time I have had this problem though! Find a brand that works and stick to it. Don't just buy something that is pretty... that is what I did.
Annaleehunter - What brand was the pink and white thread that was poor quality? Too bad you had to go through th extra work! You will love the King Tut! They have great colors and it is very strong.
It was C&C... ugh, first time I bought their thread. My sister uses it on her Kenmore and loves it. It just doesn't seem to be a good thread for quilting.
I can't wait to try King Tut. I would love to find another brand or two to rely on so I have more choices. Until I can afford to order some KT it is back to Gutterman.
