Connecting Threads Essential Cotton Thread 5000 Yard Cone Set of 2 (Natural)

I quilt and use a lot of thread so I was intrigued with the connecting threads brand. I love the large cones in the neutral color. Yes you see some lint every now and then but the value was worth it.

My wife and I do much of the binding on our guild’s charity quilts. This thread works beautifully for what we do. I think with two of these two spools I should get about four years of charity quilts and the bindings. Great quality. So much so I purchased two spools of the medium gray as well.

While thread is not exciting to most people, I am a sewing enthusiast, and so thread is exciting to me. After a successful hand surgery, I am able to sew again! I find that I am going through an enormous amount of thread making things. I tried Connecting Threads as a way to get some more bang for my buck since my local retailers (big box stores) do have thread, the value is not great. I am so happy that I tried Connecting Threads! 100% cotton thread does make an enormous difference in how my machine sews. I have yet to find anything that I dislike about the thread! Having said that, I will address the elephant in the room: the size of the 5000 yard thread cone. It does not fit on my machine, but I purchased a stand alone thread holder that is working very well. I'll be purchasing from Connecting Threads again, probably soon!Update: I have made both a queen and a king sized quilt in addition to multiple small projects, and I'm still not quite halfway through the first cone of thread. There has been NO breakage, no snags, and no problems whatsoever. I stand by my original review that this is an excellent product for both quality and value.

I bought these, for my new Juki and OMG. I'm glad I did. I may never have to buy thread again. They are giants. I love this. Good thread. Has not frayed at all. Worth every penny and they are not even that expensive. I'm not a fan of that other brand, everyone loves, that curls up all over the place and comes out of the needle. this does none of that.

Product acceptable as purchased.

I like that I received two cones of thread. I love Connecting Threads thread products.

Amazing quality for the price and the amount of thread on the cone is great for quilt making. I like that this thread will last a while.

I love this thread !

I will be buying more because I quilt a lot. Great for piecing and quilting.
