I wished that I had known about Metro! I have spent so much money at Joann's for thread! I still do love Joann's but I will only but Metro thread in the future!!!
Thanks Dawn

the varigated thread sews out in stripes. Not all but most.
by sewlikedawn 24 Feb 2011
I thought that to and then I stitched out this cute little flower for GD and I really like the differance. So I did get the varigatted thread too!

by sewlikedawn 24 Feb 2011

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
by cobalthearts 25 Feb 2011
Thanks! I looked up the site. I will try it. It sure beats the Isacord and other prices. ♥
