will i ever use all of those colors? probably not. but they sure are pretty to look at! :lol:
Ditto what you said patrice. I have one of each and many doubles/triples of the large purchase seperate spools (For quilting on thier kits I bought.) Makes it easier to find the right color that way.
I also use Aurifil , King Tut and other Superior threads. It depends on whether or not the piecing is complicated with lots of intersecting lines or not. The quilting thread is dependent on how nice the quilt is. If I have invested a couple hundred dollars or more in a top, I want the best I can get my paws on ...LOL!
Drag around quilts, I use a medium grade thread my machine likes.
