HAs anyone tried Coats eloflex thread. I tried it on a pocket on a pair of pants. Worked fine on the straight seam, but one I got to the curve it made a mess, the top thread shredded in the needle, got caught in the machine and was just so difficult to use. I change the top thread to a spool of Gutterman Mara and had no more problems. I don't know if it was me or the thread to be honest, but I don't think it was worth the aggravation. I'm usig a ponte roma fabric.

Pretty much my response, too... and my Juki is not a picky machine.

Thanks Kay Neither is my Viking. I decided to go back to using my Gutterman Mara and a small zig zag stitch. Much better results. I think coats has come up with a real loser with Eloflex. Not worth the cost.
