Now I never have an issue of finding a particular color to quilt with!
Do you use Aurifil for both the top and bottom threads when quilting?
It looks to me as if Aurifil 50wt is very similar to Superior Thread's Masterpiece thread, but Aurifil comes in many more colors and costs less per yard. I just ordered the color chart and a couple of spools of Aurifil from Sue's website. I like the idea of less lint with Aurifil.
Yes - I use Aurifil for both top and bottom threads.
