The serger thread I have is not a consistent weave, whereas sewing thread is. The serger thread varies in thickness. It works in a serger because you are using multiple threads all at the same time and all the threads support the seam. I don't think it would do that well for standard sewing, but I could be wrong.

Edited to add: When I Googled the question, some answers were Yes, and some were No. I'd sew a seam or two with it and pull on them to see if the thread holds up and looks good. If it does, then go for it. They did say that some sewing machines would do well with it and others wouldn't.
