It is great to see people can go outside the box - I am just not one of those people! Besides, I took too many classes on thread and how thread is made. I also won't use the cheap Walmart type thread either because it is what the thread companies refer to as 'medlings" (spelling?), which is the thread that is swept up off the floor when making good thread - then made into thread. I will probably really get dinged for throwing this out there! I will hold some armor over my head before you all start yelling at me!
