He said it's so bad, that he can tell what might be wrong by the way the thread behaves. I was kind of upset by all that. I've used C&C for many years, sewed all kinds of clothes and household items. It was always the only thread I'd ever used. I do seem to have more problems with breakage and shredding, tho. Maybe she is right. I'll have to use other brands more often and check it out.
"My thread of choice is Gutterman, it not only is a cleaner thread, but I will use C&C if I am in a bind, I wait for it to go on sale at Joanne's and they I go crazy and buy a bunch, I usually have what I need on hand.
