I use a Premium Sulky 30wt all purpose mercerized cotton, matte finish, strong it's good for machine or hand use and can be dry cleaned or machine washable. You can get it in solid colors or varigated. I buy 500m. If you are using a long arm quilting machine. I'm not familiar with the thread for them, but for quilt tops this is what I use. :)

sorry I didn't see where you were asking about a long arm. Check out http://www.connectingthreads.com or http://www.nancysnotions.com or http://www.keepsakequilting.com each of these places carry thread as well as Fons and Porter's website. Hope this helps a little and not too confusing. :)
