Thread strength?
The other post about thread breaking has me nervous. The normal thread I usually use for quilting (Mettler 40 wt) was out at my LQS. The store clerk said a spool of the Aurifil wt 28/2 thread was about the same thickness as the thread I was using before so I got it and have been using it for piecing and bound my last quilt with it. So far, I haven't had a problem with it, although I was able to break it with my hands. I noticed most of you use Aurifil 50 wt. Would you continue to use this 28 wt for piecing and quilting or should I cut my losses and buy some stronger thread?
