I believe that one reason aurifil sells so well is because popular authors like Edyta Sitar or Gudrun Erla reccommend it in their books. Because of lint and shredding, I stopped buying Connecting Threads brand and bought a lot of aurifil in neutral shades that was part of a close-out offer. That was the earlier Connecting Threads, more recently I have ordered thread from them and was happy with it. To me, Connecting Threads just gets better and better in their thread and fabric collections. I also stock up on Coats & Clark when on sale. When picking out and re-sewing what someone else has sewn, the brand of thread does not matter nearly as much as how careful the sewer is, or if the sewing machine has been fine tuned.
