I have used Connecting Thread fro a long time and like it very much.
I have never gotten any with a label of color on the spool. Also I have trouble opening a new spool.

The fabric is made in North America, not necessarily in the USA. Someone mentioned this to me a while ago, they think a lot of it is made in Mexico, which is part of North America.

I have not tried the thread from Connecting Threads before, but after reading this post, I will definitely get some. I have ordered lots of things from them before. They have great products, great prices and great delivery times. And they give you free shipping for orders over $50. Good deal! :D

I recently ordered all of their sets when they were on sale. I've used a few and really liked them - no problems. The only thing I don't like is that once you remove the paper, the color isn't marked on the spool anywhere. So I cut the a small piece of the paper that includes the color, and when I'm through using the spool, I roll it the paper and stick it just inside the spool for future reference.

I do not like their thread or fabric. The thread breaks easily and fuzzes, I think, because they make it with a shorter stands in the twist. The prices are good, but that might be a clue. You sorta get what you pay for.

Their thread is great! I switched and am glad I did-I don't have any problems with it.

I use their thread also and I love it. It doesnt break and I use it in my embroidery machine also. Not as shiney as rayon or poly but sometimes that doesnt matter. depends on what I am embroidering .

I love it. I ordered some late last night (midnight), and I received an email this morning at 8:00 a.m. that it had shipped!

I haven't ordered Connecting Threads thread but I have gotten fabric, kits and patterns. I have been very happy with everything! I will be ordering thread if I have any money left after Sew Expo on Saturday. :)
