It wasn't a finer moment in sewing, just a needed one. I was serging receiving blankets for NewBorns in Need. Miles and miles and miles. I noticed that the thread coming from the cones had thin spots and lumps. I asked this question over at my quilting group but only received answers from UK - not helpful here in the USA Gulf Coast Swamp. It seems to me that using thin/lumpy thread on my sergers is not good for the results OR the sergers. I find that Metrocor by Mettler is recommended but, my Golly! It would cost about $80 to load a serger at that price. MaxiLock is what's on the sergers now and even with my old eyes it wobbles in quality. I stitch for newborn babies who own nothing except the disposable diaper they have on when they leave the hospital. Somebody help me! Polly
