I love using prewound SuperBobs from Superior. They definitely hold more thread than ones you wind yourself, and they are amazingly uniform. I bought two different assortments, one neutral and one brights, and I've yet to make a quilt that I didn't have a good match for.

I also use filtec magnetic core prewounds exclusively on my professional multi-needle embroidery machine. The only exception is if I am making free standing lace in any color but white. I buy them by the gross, literally, and find they run amazingly smooth until the thread is completely gone.

I love prewounds!
