What's the difference between quilting thread and regular thread? Is it the thickness? TIA ;D

Quilting thread is thicker and sturdier than sewing thread. Usually it is made of longer staple cotton fibers so it is less prone to breakage when quilting.

quilting thread is thicker and stronger to hold the multiple layers together, regular thread is a standard weight for sewing clothing and embroidery thread is thinner and shinier for appearance. You also have metalics which are flat and stretchy. Hope this helps...... ;-)
