    It's called Glide and it's getting rave reviews from the professional long armers. It's a non stretch poly that shines like rayon. I got a sample spool of the Glide and two free sample bobbins of Bobbin Line made by the same company. I started free motion quilting a project to try it out and and no breaks, snags, tangles or any problem at all. The look of the thread is so nice in the quilting stitch. It's awesome.

    I use the Bottom Line by Superior and love it. It works great. Haven't tried the Glide however. Would like to know how it works.

    Sound interesting and the price isn't bad at all.

    Thank you for linking to my blog, not sure who you are since I only see an alias here.

    I do love the Glide thread for my quilting, I buy direct, ask them to send you a color card with the actual threads wound on it... I love the stuff and use it on Customers and my show quilts...
