I used to sew clothes and home dec things before the quilting bug bit me. I have a box of Coats and Clark threads in every color of the rainbow. When I started quilting, I realized just how quickly the C and C spools became empty. And at almost $3 a spool, it was breaking my budget.
I found Connecting Threads and stocked up before Christmas when all of their threads were on sale. I have at least one of every color, and two of some. I love how the Connecting Threads spools seem to last and last. I have a Janome and Brother and both machines like both kinds of threads.
