Quilting threads?
I'm so confused about quilting threads to use on a high speed machine right now. My Janome 1600P is a high speed sewing/quilting machine and it has broken thread at least 30 times while I'm quilting a little boys quilt. I have tried two different brands of 50 wt gray thread (Missouri Star and Gutterman) on two different machines and it shredds or just breaks it completely. Needles have been swapped out and now I'm using a size 14 top stitch needle in my Jamone 6500MC right now and the problem continues. Should I be using a 40 wt cotton or polyester thread with a size 16 needle? I've never had problems like this before and am completely stumped. Google gives me different answers. Help!
