Check it out for yourself. I use it almost exclusively as the price is right. I even bought plastic storage containers to use to keep my "extras" in. They have sales occasionally on the thread and that is when I stock up. Works great for me.

I have recently made several purchases from CT and am happy with the fabric. I haven't yet put the thread in my machine but I have read many great reviews so am not worried.

Same here - I buy the natural (color) by the dozen and I also have some of the colored thread which I get when it is on sale. Actually, the colors are too pretty to use!~!!!!! I love the thread. Edie

I love connecting threads products and prices and customer service. They responded very quickly when I had a problem with a kit. Place an order. I hope you will be as pleased as I am.

Love the way your thread is organized! I am going to have to do this. I am so tired of digging to find the right color.

I have purchased from Connecting Threads for many years. I have enough of their thread to last me the rest of my life, I went bonkers a couple of years ago when they had a sale. Yes their prices seem too good to be true, but I've never been disappointed in their fabric or their thread. They are just a family oriented business that thrives because they give quality products at good prices and give great service to their customers. You'll have to go a long way to find any company better. The only other one is Missouri Star Quilt, at least for me anyway.

I have used their threads for years and I too love them. No problems but I do clean lint when I change my bobbin. Their customer service is terrific. I have also bought fabric, kits and notions. The kits were very generous. Barb

Thank you all for the great responses! And for the reminders to clean the lint from my bobbin/machine. I have purchased some fabric from CT and was quite pleased with it. I will certainly give their thread a try after such great reviews from this board!

Thanks again!

I love their thread! It can be a little linty so I clean my machine frequently. I have every color they offer. It's so nice to go my thread collection and have the color I need. And their price is awesome, especially if you wait for one of their sales!

I have all their quilting threads both the polyester and cotton ones..............though the cotton ones are linty, you can't beat the price. I also use Aurifil when I can afford their prices and they're not as linty. I rarely have problems with thread breaks with the CT threads so I'll continue to use them till the quality goes downward if ever. I also purchase their fabrics with no regrets until lately which hopefully will be rectified shortly. The quality is good but I think someone in the cutting dept. is getting skimpy with the cuts..............Just my opinion.
