Bama, I saw another post somewhere and they said the thread was old and weak. I dunno where I saw it, maybe in the embroidery section.

Thanks Mary. I thought the price was too good to be true.

I did a quick search on the forums for it, and this is what I got...

It looks like the opinions are varied, although I admit that I did not read every post.

Hope it helps.
Take care,
