I'm in love with Gutterman thread, been using it exclusively since my first quilt, but good lord can it get expensive!
Does anyone use it? How is it? Their prices seem extremely reasonable, and I might throw a thread collection on my graduation wishlist if you guys think it's good enough. :)

The cotton I have also used in my LA but it makes a lot of lint in the bobbin case area. It does the job ok but there are too many other threads out there that I have discovered at comparable prices that I like much better.

Been using CT thread for awhile now, and love it, never had a problem. I've pieced and quilted with it. You can not beat the price, and I never ever pay shipping. I can always find enough to buy to get free shipping.

I don't know about their thread yet, but I love their customer service and follow-up. They have a great selelction of fabric and if they don't have it will do all they can to bring it in. They stand by their products.
