Like someone else says, I want mine FULL - each bobbin is only about half an hour of steady sewing and it seems to run out too fast, as it is.

Maybe it is a tension issue that she's trying to get around? What kind of machine is she using, can you tell?
I use Bottom Line from Superior Threads - it balances beautifully with all thicknesses of quilting threads - 30 down to 60 I use, and metallics and rayons, plus it's so fine you can get miles of it on the bobbin so it's lasts for ages. :D
