I use all their various threads and fabrics. Yes their cotton quilting thread is a bit linty but as others have stated, no more or less than other higher priced threads. Their fabrics.............you can't beat the price and I find it just as nice as the higher priced fabrics. Their Customer Service is very good too. As I order a bunch of fabrics at one time, if they make a mistake in cutting it, you just have to call them up and tell them. They send a new piece in place of it, no questions asked. They want to make you happy. Can't beat that kind of service, can you?

I love their thread! I use it for everything. Love the way it quilts. The only caveat is that is linty. I clean my bobbin case frequently.

I have been using their cotton thread for quite some time and I have not had any problems with it. It is a good value for the money.

I use it all the time, yes it does have some lint, but no problem that a brush can't take handle.

I use it and love it. I also like Aurifil, but I can't really say the Aurifil is *that* much less linty. For the price CT threads are the BOMB!!

I've been using their thread for years. The thread box that opens on both sides is also a good buy.

I love CT thread! I use it for piecing with Superior's Bottomline in the bobbin. Individual spools/cones and colour collections are a great buy and even better when on sale.

BTW, check out their wonderful fabric: it's easy to find $50 of goodies and get free shipping. Well, $7.50 to Hawai`i but I can't complain about that given I've gotten to the checkout at favorite online companies found on this board and discovered shipping costs to be in the ridiculous range ($85 shipping for a couple of FQ bundles anyone?).

As for lint, you should clean out the bobbin area every time you change the bobbin anyway.
