Default What thread to use

Hi...I've been asked to recover some cushions that came out of a caravan. It's a nice fairly thick woven upholstery fabric that the lady has chosen. I've just realised I don't have any upholstery thread and wondered if anyone had used normal sewing thread. I wondered if sewing the seams a couple of times (or maybe 3) would provide enough strength or would I be better off to see if I can get the proper thread. The other thing, I'm wondering how the thicker thread would go in my machine...Janome

Thanks

Janice
