i go to
www.baysidequilting.com
when they have a sale. i'm not bonded to any particular brand as long as the weight is right, and i use poly, rayon, and silk, as well as cotton. i've tried all the brands they sell. if the needle eye is smooth and the quality of the thread is good, i never have a problem. except with invisible thread. yuck.
i don't know why that didn't make a link. sorry. try this:
https://www.baysidequilting.com/stor...?idCategory=90 (nope)
just look up threads and bobbins, then choose the thread you're interested in. they're having a sale right now on valdani, a very nice thread, $3.00, a good price. sometimes they close out colors. that's when i buy.

I love variegated thread. Not all is made well, though. I purchased a pink and white for a rag quilt and I am now having to reinforce the seams by hand with my old standby, Gutterman, b/c the seams are coming apart and I am afraid to finish it without this precaution. This is the first time I have had this problem though! Find a brand that works and stick to it. Don't just buy something that is pretty... that is what I did.
