    I love the thread, have every color they sell, also get the big cones of the basic colors. I do a lot of thread painting and love the thread for that as well as for piecing. Economical too.

    I use it on my Pfaff for piecing and on the Juki TL-98Q for quilting. Never any problems.
    Their colors are gorgeous. :thumbup:
    Thank you!!! I appreciate that you list the machines that it does (or doesn't) work with. I think this is very helpful if people will state their brand as there may be a trend here...

    I have read several "threads" on threads over the past several months and I think the general concensus is positive for CT thread. I plan on trying it out as soon as I can scrap enough money together to make a $50 order. Hate, hate, HATE to pay shipping.

    I agree, am having quite a bit of fuzz. I haven't used it long, a few month is all. I always bought Gutterman from our local quilt shop, but it is about 3 times the price of connecting threads thread. ??

    My absolute favorite is Superior thread. I don't think you can beat it. The only thing is, it is a little pricey. The thread at Connecting Thread is good thread. I use it in my long arm and my Bernina 820, which can be a little bit picky and it works fine.

    I like it a lot! It's reasonably priced and my Bernina loves it. I still cringe when I buy the "designer" threads! $7.00 and up is a lot of money to me, cuts into fabric purchases.!
