Use Good Thread When Quilting

You use quilting thread. It's thicker than regular thread. Can be obtained at cloth and hobby supply stores. Ask for help from a store clerk if you need it.

People who quilt or sew learn very quickly that cheap thread isn't worth taking home from the store. Going to a quilt store or a fabric shop is very educational when you ask the right questions. There are threads for a multitude of projects. I choose to use a thread called Sews All because it can be used on anything from satin to denim.

I am about to start (try) making a quilt. Ive always wanted a patchwork quilt, but they are very rare or too expensive.
