    Default Connecting Threads Essential Pro for LA machines - thumbs up

    Hi all-

    Just wanted to say, I quilt on an Innova and tested out a recent order of a few neutral cones of Essentail Pro thread from connecting threads. No joke, was VERY similar to So fine. Used it in my bobbin and top..matching, and my machine LOVED it! It definitely had a little more lint than Superior thread, but I can deal with that!

    Thought I would share for those who are on the bubble..its not a bad price for $6 a cone! JC

    I use CT Essential thread all the time. It works very well, and, as you said, the price is right.

    Connecting Threads always seems to come up with good products at great prices. I use Essential Pro too, on my Innova.

    I use Connecting Threads 70wt 100% filament poly Pro cones for bobbin thread. I also use Aurifil 80 wt bobbin thread and can't tell a difference in lint build up.

    Essential pro works great with my Bailey, and the price is right.

    I also got few basic colors couple of months back and used it on my Viking 18" long arm and loved it. Little lint yes but I always clean and puff after each bobbin change anyways so doesn't matter. like everyone else said the price is right.

    I use the Conecting Threads Essential Pro all the time. I have an APQS Freedom and it works very good on it. I use both the cotton and the polyestor threads from Connecting Threads. Very little lint. I now have almost all the colors and it is my thread of choice.
