What’s the best thread for quilting?

The best thread for quilting is the thread that looks good to you and doesn’t detract from the pupose of the quilt.

That means if the quilt is for a baby throw rug that will be washed very regularly for example, a good quality polyester thread would be advisable.

If you want your thread to disappear, use our InvisaFil.
