Aw, I hadn't thought of that! Thank for the tip.

I have 4 machines, each with their own preferences but fortunately I have now found that they all like the thread that I get from http://www.threadart.com/shop/category.aspx?catid=2 and I still find it a lot cheaper even with the postage to me in the UK :thumbup:

I like the Mettler silk finish and my machine seems to like it, but like everything else it is getting higher so may switch to Gutterman since the local JoAnn's carries it and has it on sale sometimes.

I use Mettler and Connecting Threads. Always cotton when I'm sewing with cotton. Experiment with different brands and you'll find a preference.
