you can only try= i've not had any luck with the rayon embroidery threads for quilting on the long-arm but i think it's because the machine just goes too fast for that thread...on your smaller machine it might work. i bought whole sets of embroidery threads too- spent $400 on threads that sit on a closet shelf---for the past 5 years- once in a great while i get a box down and look for a color---but i've pretty much replaced all the colors i use with threads that work for me....i hope it does not rot before i find a use for it...
