If you use invisible thread, don't use the nylon invisible thread. That is the stuff that deteriorates and breaks over time.
Instead, use polyester invisible thread. It will outlive you while still feeling supple and soft.
YLI, Superior -- and Coats & Clarks -- all make polyester invisible thread. And in my heart of hearts, I doubt any one is better than the other.
I laughed when I read that!
One thing I don't like is that it looks shiny on the quilt top. But my biggest problem is I just can't see the cursed stuff!!! Did the thread come up from the bobbin? Is the top thread through the needle? Did I lose the top thread? GRRR!!!!!
