Recently bought a spool of the new Craftsy thread to give it a try....5000 yards to the spool, and got it on sale. For a 50wt thread I found it to be so super fine....not like the Connecting Threads that I've been using. Because I wanted to use it on my Janome 1600P that is on a quilting frame I proceeded to wind bobbins. Heavens...that spool was jumping and twisting off the spindle, Made a real mess of the bobbin. Finally looked at the spool and it's much larger in diameter than the Connecting Threads or Auriful spools that I've used before which allowed for the jumping and twisting. The only fix I could think of for using it was to place an old empty Connecting Thread spool inside the Craftsy one. Problem solved. Remember this was being used on a quilting frame. I've enclosed two picture to show that I mean.[ATTACH=CONFIG]595003[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595004[/ATTACH]
