Wow! You should order more! Because the price is so good! I didn't think today could get any better! Darn! I think I am going to have to listen to him for once!!!!

My Brother machine has no problem with Metro and I love the colors and the price can't be beat! Have fun picking more colors!

Has any one used the Metro thread on a Bernina 200? I find my machine really picky on some threads. Would love to find some cheaper thread to use but even at .67 it would not be a good price if I can't use it. Thanks to all the Cutie. I find this a really nice site. ♥

In SA I don't know the thread but I use Marathon in my Bernina 440 with no problem. I have switched to Colorfil (same numbers) as it's polyester with no problem Costs R1050 or about $1.50.

Thanks! I looked up the site. I will try it. It sure beats the Isacord and other prices. ♥

LOL!!! Sounds like your DH is like mine... enjoy it, and order away! :)

OMG, it's like crayons for adults... I am so excited to order... Thanks

I laughed when I read this, it is so what my hubby would say! I just read it to him, he laughed and said "ya, she ought to"!

by all means, do what he says. You should have recorded it so you could play it back when he begins to complain about you buying more.

A happy women makes a happy hubby,
mine is the same kind. That's why we love them right?
Hope you find your balance and have enough storing space.

Metro sews fine on my Brother ULT but won't sew at all without a lot of thread breaks on my commercial machine. I wish it would because their prices are great.

Their bobbins are excellent and a great price for plastic side bobbins. I can't tell the difference in Metro bobbins and the plastic side bobbins from NEB.

I wish they would carry colored bobbins.

Gotta love a great deal! What a great husband!

Go for it!

How fortunate for you. I think I would go get more as you have his permission, right?

I have never heard of Metro thread (my Joann's doesn't carry it). I would like to try it and see how well it works as I definitely like the price. Thanks for the tip, here's a flower for you.

Metro is the website. We were comparing the thread to what we get from Joann's.

My Hubby said the same thing when it happened to me too! It sure is great to be able to afford more thread and I find it works better too!

Good for you and smart hubby, too.
