Years ago Iris was about the only available thread for a while. I've use a million miles of it and still have some after 30 years it still works, but at a very loose top tension. Takes some playing to find out what the settings need to be. Not for those who are timid about messing with both upper and lower tension on their machines.

I just got a cone of their white and also the gold metallic along with backing samples free from the company. Haven't tried them yet though. The white looks very shiny on the cone.

With the answer by lilylady I may go ahead and try it today just to see what I can tell you from experience.

A lady brought some home from Mexico for 3 ladies here and none of us can get it to work. We all 3 have babylock, one has a 6 needle. It is beautiful colors and I just can't believe it won't work. Thats all the information I have.
