I use it all the time, and when I worked at a quilt shop, that is what we used on the longarm.
So, am I understanding correctly, Isacord is the same thread as the Mettler Metrosene? Is it just the polyester embroidery thread? Is there a weight difference? Do you know where I could find a chart to cross reference thread colors?
Usually a Bernina store has a free color chart. As to a comparison, that I don't know. I just choose similar colors for my projects. The mettler/Isacord is 40 wt. Mettler also comes in a cotton thread.
