I bought a couple different sets of coordinating colors about a year ago. It is the 50 weight and I love it. Best thread I have used and the price cannot be beat.

I keep hearing about how good the thread is but I am afraid to try it. I use the Guterman 1000m 100% polyester thread and an 80/12 needle. My Babylok Quilters Pro is a thread queen and can't handle a thick thread. I dont like the size 14 needles. If I were to try this, which one should I order?

I have Connecting Thread in just about every color they make. In the last six years I've never had any problems with this thread and would recommend it without hesitation.

Me too! I love their Essentials. I buy it on sale - always buy Natural by the dozen. The 1200 yd spools are great! Have absolutely no complaints about Connecting Threads thread! And yes, most every other one is twice as expensive. And in this day and age, we quilters can use all the help we can get, eh? Edie

They are a great company to deal with. I'm not a thread connoisseur, but I love their essential pro thread.
That is really funny about the purple scissors Sewnoma!

I have purchased twice from them. I like the thread. I works great in all three of my machines, 2 Singers and a husqvarna 1+. Good prices, especially when on sale, and great customer service. On my last order one of the colors was not what I expected and they replaced the spools, let me keep the ones already here, and at no cost to me. Arrived 3 days later.

I love their thread. It's a bit thicker than aurifil but I've not had any problem with it.
