I have always tried to put a knot at the beginning and at the end of my quilting, but recently I saw some instructions which said to run the thread under the fabric and into the batting for a couple of inches and leave it at that. This is very tempting for me as sometimes my thread breaks just at the point where I am trying to get the knot under the fabric.

Is this something that I should consider, or should I just leave well enough alone? My concern is that after a time, the thread could start to come out by itself.
