This thread was nice, it was as described and was what I was needing. The shipping was prompt and packing was careful. I would purchase from this seller again.

The thread works fine in my domestic sewing machine. Accidentally cut some of the threads when trying to take the plastic off. I didn't see a perforated strip.

It does the job great, no snags or twisting. I sew every day, most of the day, and it last quite a long time.

I brought this thread to use in piecing together quilt tops. The shade of gray works well with light and dark fabric. I also like the thread quality and strength. Would definitely purchase again.

Excellent value - I used to work in the NYC garment center after attending Fashion Institute of Technology - I still have many spools of this type of thread from sewing my term garments, and I'm glad to have found a resource to replenish my collection. The thread is not quite as sturdy as some of the polyester or cotton wrapped polyester that I've been using over the years (more readily available but much smaller spools) - I only discern this as I'm making a dust ruffle for my bed and as I draw the threads to gather the fabric for the ruffle, there is a tendency for it to break rather easily. I don't expect any issue with the thread once it is used to sew the ruffle to the bed platform - and the stitching on the hems appears quite nice and the thread looks to be a good quality. Overall, very happy ! (My solution will be to use a polyester thread for the gathering stitches on the ruffle preparation going forward - they are pulled and discarded at the end anyway !)

Good quality thread at a reasonable price AND it arrived in one day rather 2-3 weeks! You quilters probably know what I’m talking about. The color was perfect for my project but I do have to say that the picture was a little off from the actual color but it was still in all a perfect match/blend. It is strong and the perfect weight and the spool is very user friendly. I will definitely buy more as I love sewing and quilting. Two things a quilter can never have too much of: material and thread - and notions - and patterns - and machines - and rulers - and scissors - and rotary cutters - and cake squares and jelly rolls - and and and and ……
