So why the big flap about strength for quilt piecing? When most quilts are finished the stress is spread out over most of the whole quilt. Most quilts are not used for tug-o-war games. Plus, there are at least two layers of fabric and miles of stitches through it all to hold things together. No stress. If serger thread can hold the butt seam together in tight sports clothing, it surely can hold together a quilt laying on a bed.
