    Poly thread from THREADART and if so, how did you use it (Piecing and/or machine quilting)? Did you like/love or dislike? Thank you

    I use cotton machine quilting thread from Threadart in my Tin Lizzie. It's cheap and plenty strong but almost every cone has a knot in it. I know the knot will gum-up the works at some point but for the price it's good enough. I also use their machine embroidery thread and have had no problems with it. The price is good on it too.

    i've used it-i like it- my machines like it-
    i've used it for piecing and for quilting without problems-
    my long arm does not like cotton threads- they break every few inches.
