Actually, if you do a break test...serger thread is as strong, or stronger than regular 50wt sewing thread. It used to be said that serger thread would cut into cotton fabrics...but I have a quilt I made using serger thread over 30 years ago...and it's held up just fine.

I use a poly wrapped cotton sewing thread....get it from WAWAK usually. Have mine in one of those cone holders.......your thread path sounds interesting!
