Default LA use Signature Thread in Bobbin?

Long arm quilters have you ever used Signature thread in the bobbin. How did it work out?

Signature works fine in the bobbin of my Avante and I often use Signature for both the bobbin and top thread. Like any thread change you might need to tweak the tension. Signature is fuzzy thread so be sure to brush out the lint with every bobbin change.

Mcwillia is correct. I have a KenQuilt longarm and I use the Signature in bobbin and top. And yes it is fuzzy. Have to brush and clean real often. No problem. Also no problem with the tension.

I've used it too and I agree with what has been said here.

I use 100% cotton Signature thread almost exclusively in my Gammill, both top and in the bobbin. It runs great in Gammills.
