First of all ... I am not familiar with either threads.
The embroidery thread that I have used is Hemingsworth.

Re your concern re "shine" ... keep in mind that you will have very little thread,
compared to the amount that shows when doing embroidery.
Try it and see, but I think you will find that it will stay pretty subtle.

It's that subtle shine, as to why I choose embroidery thread for FMQing.
It just gives a wee bit of lustre and that is what I like about it.
