Final update ladies..........and truly, thanks to all. I watched all Superior thread videos, "they are great" and very informative. While I was using metallic 90/40 needles the quality of thread, the tension where and how the thread is feeding off are hugely important. My granddaughter's quilt is coming along beautifully. I completed the princess' crown thread painting last night :). On to the dragon. Good luck to all

When it's a spool, yes straight out and off the backside of the spool...when it's a cone or mini-cone..thread should feed straight up to the guide above the cone, and that guide should directly above the cone.
