I use polyester Isacord too. I learned about it from Leah Day's site. I buy it locally from the company in town that sells sewing machines, long arms, embroidery machines etc... They have a large (entire wall) of Isacord colors on big cones. You can even get double size cones that are huge!! And a good price!! I started with just a few colors, but as I've quilted more I've added more colors to my collection. The colors I use the most are a Light and Dark Gray, warmish Taupe, White. But I've also used: Teal, Rust, Navy, Gold, and Pink.
