3incollege, you are so right. I love the threads they have out there now.
A caution I almost discovered the hard way. When our mom passed away I inherited her thread collection because I had three girls I was sewing for. Well, long story short, I didn't sew enough or fast enough. When I started making quilts I discovered that most of that old thread was not worth messing with. It was basically rotten. SO, I purged my thread drawer. I have a cute jar with all the wooden thread spools and colorful thread that is no longer useable. The rest was pitched out and I started all over again. It's been only a few years and I have two small drawers full of thread again. :lol:
