You should try Invisifil or Superior's Micro quilter. Bottom line will look like course yarn in comparison to these two products. Both are 100wt 2 ply threads compared to bottom line which is a 60wt 2 ply. Compared side by side there is a major difference and the 100 wts sink down into the fabric and become practically invisible. Silk is also a great alternative for nearly invisible top stitching but much more expensive than Invisifil or micro quilter.
If one hates monofiliment invisible thread, these are a great alternative. For rvsfan there are some awesome invisible threads out there now. Superior Monopoly, Filtec Essence and YLI invisible are all great products that are super fine. I use both Monopoly (Polyester) and Essence (which is a nylon) for ditch work on my Longarm quite often. I do always use a thread net with these products. I have used the YLI product in my domestic with great success as well.
