Connecting Threads Thread

Hi All,
I was just on the Connecting Thread website and they are having a sale on their cotton thread. My question, has anyone used their thread? What is the quality? It is really cheap and its tempting....but I just don't know the quality.
If anyone has used it, please let me know how they like it.
Thanks in advance.....

I recently purchased 3 spools of their thread and have used about 1/2 of a white spool. I like their thread. And I am planning on purchasing more as they are having that sale for $1.74 a spool for 1200 yards. My very very first quilt I made, the lady that taught me to make it owned her own little quilt shop and she turned me on to a spool of the gray and she loved it also. And I still have about 1/4 of that spool left. :) I think you would be happy with their thread. :)

I use the cotton thread for piecing. It works great in my vintage machines. It may be linty for the newer machines. The poly Pro thread is lint free, thinner and strong. I use it for bobbin thread and have no problem using it for machine quilting. I have no problem with it at all and have a lot of the sets. Buy one spool of the cotton and one cone of the Pro and be sure it's what your machine likes.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THREAD FROM CONNECTING THREADS! for 9 years i struggled with finding good thread that my machines (domestic and long-arm) would accept---after wasting thousands of dollars i finally found connecting threads and my life changed!
my new goal is to accumilate every single color they have.
i do not get alot of lint- i do not get breakage-
the prices are great and i have had great response from them- orders arrive very timely and correct (so far for a bit over a year)

I also love their thread. I also use it on my regular and longarm machines. Doesn't seem any lintier than any other thread I've tried.
