Hi and welcome from Washington state. Congratulations on your longarm machine as well. Alot of people will tell you that certain machines like certain threads so it might depend on what type of machine you have. I have a Gammill and I am very lucky it does well with everything I have tried. I prefer Signature thread because it sews nicely, looks great and is decently priced. Also it will depend on the type of quilting you are doing if you want the thread to show more or less. I also use Superior, King Tut, Lava but like Signature the most.

Good luck,
Sherryl
