I agree! I prefer cotton threa especially that from Connecting thread. Althought Coats &Clark has many colors that I sometime use for quilting I have found that spend I spend more $$$$ on the smaller spools and the CT tread gives me a better value. I will often mix both cotton ad the poly tread. Have seen no difference.
I do wonder if cotton tread will shrink with the cotton abric when washed and the poly not srink. Opinions???
