Hi everyone. Have a question for you. I have just started machine embroidery. Was wondering what brand and type of thread do u use. Thanks so much

I like C&C trilobal polyester but it's a bit hard to find. I use a lot of Robison/Anton with good results. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Floriani 40wt poly. I order Floriani from Red Rock Threads.

For bobbin thread I prefer to use prewound bobbins, but if I can't get them then I buy a spool of bobbin thread or if push comes to shove I will use Maxi Lock serger thread.

Hope this helps!

I use Isacord. But I don't use my embroidery very much because I have not fully learned how to.

medeira works for me and its available at joanns. good buy with coupons. sulky is not a favorite. it seams to break easily and tangle. i think its those skinny spools.

I have used a lot of different threads and have tons of it! Mostly ARC but am starting to buy Floriani. I love the way it feels and he has gorgeous colors available.

robinson anton my first choice --treat your self to a thread chart--cheaper threads are trouble a good deal of time---heard good things of floiarni always like to use the prewound bobbin fill lasts longer than you can wind yourself

Whatever I can find! My favourite is Isacord because my machine handles it really well, but I use a lot of Madeira, R/A, Sulky and C&C too.

I can't use pre-wound bobbins, but the Madeira bobbin thread seems to work best for me since it goes on for ages.

Isacord... fantastic stuff for both machine embroidery and machine quilting!

I have over 200 spools of ARC thread. I really like it but will replace with Madiera when this is gone. I live real close to Melco Thread in Co and they did ARC. now they have sold the thread part to Madiera. Still pretty close but different thread.

isacord is my favorite, but i've used madiera and sulky too.
