i got 2 spools of ultra lock thread it says for overlock sewing....can iuse this in a regular machine and bobbin ? doesn;t have a weight on it. thanks

I use polyester serger(overlock) thread in my quilting machine all the time and have pieced with it too

Preferences for thread varies. Personally I only use overlock, polyester thread in my serger as that's what it's designed for. I stick to cotton thread for my quilting and piecing.

I have used it for quilting and piecing also with no problems.
But some like to use all cotton materials, and I do also if it is a special gift etc.
But if it is for a daily use or baby quilt it will hold up better with the overlock thread.

If your machine like it then it's fine.

thanks for all your advice and so quickly... thread packaging didn't have any decription...weight or what it's made of so i wasn't sure if i should use it. will try it and the answer will be if the machine doesn't like it i don't use it !!!!! ( it's the boss right now !!!) thanks again

let us know if your machine liked the thread
