I only hand quilt and absolutely love the Nature-fil bamboo. Have done quite a few things with that.
Currently I am trying foo-si-boo (got it on sale) and not having any problems with that either. A little stiffer but needle gliding through great.
Do you wash or soak the Nature-fil before you use it?
