Hey Kathy A. (and anyone else too):When machine quilting, what is your usage of nylon thread?a.) Try to use (and why)b.) Try to never use (and why)c.) Have well defined rules for using (and what your rules are)d.) none of the above, but here's my 2 cents. (always welcome)

-------------Thou shalt use thine scraps to makes quilts for charity, so that those lessfortunate may know they joy of sleeping beneath a quilt.did not want to have any thread showing on the top of the quilt

Yes, because you may have done a combination of choosing, directing,programming, designing etc. to tell these machines what to do.

Since most of mine are scrap quilts, I generally like the monofilament -solves the color dilemma. Although sometimes a variegated thread looks just right. No defined rules -just whatever seems to look best to me that day. Probably would use it a bit less if I didn't have the built-in needle threader though. Roberta in D
