I use three strands of embroidery floss. Comes in soooo many colors.

Same here...mostly yarn because it was on hand. Yarn seems to hold very well.

Perle cotton and tie a square knot - the ties will still be there when the quilt is worn out.

I have tied biscuit quilts and comforters using doubled crochet thread and have used six strands of DMC. The only things I tie, don't like my quilts tied.

I use embroidery thread because of the choice of colors and I already have it on hand.

I use the crosheen type of crochet thread. It's a little thicker but tied in a square knot it stays in place. In fact, I saw my nephew dragging around a quilt I tied for him when he was about 4yo. He's 26 now! Says he likes how soft it is and took it with him when he married in May!
