Quilting with Cotton or Polyester
I have seen where many quilters use polyester and say that it is soft like cotton when sewing, depending on the brand and size of thread. One famous quilter claims the only reason why people quilt with cotton is habit. Another quilter explains that polyester is lower lint and doesn’t break as often as cotton.
I recently quilted with 60 weight polyester in a well-known brand and it seemed stiffer than quilting with cotton.
