Go to website of Superior Threads, based out of Arizona. You will get a boat load of information about thread.
I personally have been in your shoes, and used super cheap serger thread, and what ever else was handy. Do you clean your bobbin case when you put in a new full bobbin, ever wonder where all that lint comes from.....it comes from your THREAD...and can really damage your machine. I now only use the So Fine #50 from Superior and I have next to NO lint anywhere...it sews beautifully and I know the thread will last as long as the quilt fabric...
