However, with all the work that goes into your quilt, why would you piece or quilt with a lesser quality than your design and construction talents warrant. Best threads for me when sewing or quilting.
When sewing garments, I could not do without my serger and Maxi Loc, but that is what it is designed for.
welli guess we all need to find what works for us. I’ve had great success with serger thread doing FMQ. I did some googling and find I am not alone. Even on his board. So probably one size does not fit all. I also like polyester embroidery thread and cotton thread.
