Jan, do you know Sharon Wilhelm?
I thought I remembered her, but the google images aren't familiar. It's been so long and so much life has happened since my Plano days...... Wish I could remember, she appears to be a marvelous quilter!

That's why I don't use the hanks of embroidery thread, just the perle balls of it in size 8 or 12. Or crochet thread in 10 weight (yay Walmart) or 12 weight cotton thread (on a spool) like that from Sulky in plain or blendables.

I was cleaning out my sewing space yesterday and guess what I found...several balls of white perl cotton, so that's what I'm going to use. I don't think that I have enough to do the whole quilt, but it's easy to get more. Thanks everyone for your tips!
