[QUOTE=nangars;5246282]I find that my Baby Lock Ellisimo, doesn't like for the Floriaini, and I love that thread, the colors are great. I also use Isacord, that seems to work very well, have used other also, but the only one that gives me problems is Floriaini, it frays and hangs up in my machine, it is a big pain, messes up the sensor. Different machines like different threads, I have lots of thread, but buy the colors I like, if it is something I use a lot of I will buy more than one.
I was told that if you find a thread that shreds then try going up in size of the needle and that should help. I did that with a project that I was doing and it called for polyester thread, size 11 sharp needle. I had tons of the cone thread that I wanted to use up and since this wasn't a project that would be put under a lot of stress I figured it didn't matter. I had some of the thread would be great and then it'd start breaking and shredding. It took me a while but finally I went up to a size 14 sharp and it did great and I got the project finally done. Also, when it comes to colors, when I buy them I try to get at least two colors close enough they can be used to shade each other with. That was what I noticed my first problem was with my first project, I didn't have enough tones of thread to add the shading most require. Now I always buy two that could be used for this if need be and that has saved me alot here lately.
