my statement above refers to the Pro Longarm thread by Connecting Threads.

i have had great success with it and zero tension problems but i'm also used to quilting with a very fine thread such as bottom line.

i don't know about the lint comment from the person above thats why i made the comment to her asking for clarification.

i have never had lint with the Pro Longarm thread but suffered from lint overload with their 100% cotton thread.

i won't even use their cotton thread any longer for this reason for quilting or piecing.
