Question Question about threads for quilting.

Hi everyone,

I have a bunch of cones of serger thread (Maxi-Lock, 100% poly). Do you think that would be okay to use in the bobbin for quilting (not piecing)?

I also have a stash of Sulky embroidery thread -- 40 ct, 100% poly. Would that work as a top thread when quilting, maybe with a 90/14 Topstitch needle?

If yes but I couldn't match the colors well enough, would the Sulky 40 ct be too thick to use in the bobbin (if using it in the needle)?

I just hate to waste all these great colors I have in my stash, as I haven't embroidered or serged for about 5 years and am probably not getting back to either anytime soon.

All advice welcome.
