I would like to know as a newbie to embroidery and this lovely site what the best threads to use to get good results with embroidery designs and fonts. Warmly, Tavanna

Tavanna, welcome from France

I use metroemb.com thread and love it on my Brother PE780D.

Hi I have a babylock Ellissimo and I use Isocord and Mettler. I have no problems with them and they come in 349 different colors.Suzanne

You have your answers so welcome.

Welcome Tavanna, and I see you have some wonderful answers already. I also use Metro threads and the ones from Australia through Scrapdragon called Dragon. I have only ever had problems with the black Dragon thread and was informed (on this site) that the black thread is dipped twice in the dye and weakens it. So I prefer the Metro - I've had no problems with them.

A big Aussie welcome from me! Love and blessings Chris

Tavanna, as everyone says - we each have our favorite thread that works with our machine. I have a Babylock Ellegante2 and use Metro Threads and I also use Metallic from The Embroidery Store.

Welcome to the CUTE family.

Depends which country your from. I have Brother Innovos 1500D and use polyester threads from Scrapdragon.com.au. In Australia of course. Very very seldom a breakage.

Everyone does have their favorite!! I have a Brother Innovis 1500D and I use Metro thread. It is very reasonable and my machine loves it! Good luck and welcome to Cute!! *4U

That is good to hear because I too have a 1500D and just ordered the 166 spool pack

Wow, this is one of those questions we all wish there was ONE answer to, but it seems to be a case of trial-and-error for most of us.

I have a Brother machine, and of course its the Brother thread that my machine loves.

Welcome to Cuties :) xXx

There are so many answers to this one. Welcome to Cute. Be careful this site is extremely addictive!!!

Yes, I am quite aware of that. Ty for the welcome and the info. Tavanna

There won't be one answer for this one! Everyone has their favorite, and my favorite is Madeira Rayon 40. Welcome to Cute!

I've use all kinds..Robinson Anton, Sulky and Maderia. They've all worked well with me so far. I haven't found/used a great metallic thread just yet, but I understand Superior Threads has a good one.

I agree that Superior Threads has the best Metallic--just finished some FSL angels, and they stitched without a hitch :)
