spools with 1100 yards per spool. The price was $13.95 which included shipping. I thought it was a good price. Now can't wait to try it.

I brought the complete collection a few years ago, because there was no sales tax or shipping charge. I like it, but sometimes it breaks quite often. I now have a thread holder, that holds the thread upright and I don't seem to have as much trouble. I like mine. I'm still one of those if I do something very nice, I still use sulky or maderia. I used the metro thread for the scrubbies, because it was polyester. Its worth a try, can't hurt. LOL

I have used this and love it for flowers and the greens for leaves. I think it makes some designs look very interesting. Very subtle
blend when stitched.

I have purchased thread from thread-art and like their embroidery thread and their metalics but not their all purposse thread. The all purpose thread is heavier than I'm used to, and it breaks and fuzzes. All of my machines hate it especially my coverpro.

Love their colors. I order all the time with them. Real good stuff. No problems at all with the thread.

I hate it!! (or at least my machine does) it won't feed through the disks and needle AT ALL and I ended up breaking my needle and cracking the part that holds the needle in place (still need to get it repaired) because it wouldn't feed and actually pulled the needle so far out of shape that it hit the foot, thus breaking the needle and putting a huge ding in the plastic foot.And yes, it was the thread. I checked it against all my other embroidery threads that I have. And I've used just about all that are availble in the past 15 years. I was told that it is inferior in that it is made with short pieces of threads not longer ones, and there are knots in it. Just my experience.

My machine does not like it. It breaks constantly for me. I would not buy from them again simply for that reason. I use mostly R-A, Maderia, Sulky or Metro. All are fine with my machine. Hugs, Mary

I have used it-plus alot of their other embroidery threads and stabilizers. I haven't had any trouble with breakage with my machine-I have a MC9700 Janome machine. ~linda~

I purchased a set of poly thread from them when I first bought my machine. The thread breaks and gets stuck in my machine. I have a Babylock Ellegante--needless to say--my machine HATES Thread Art thread. I contacted them about my problems--hoped to return it--all they offered was "there is nothing wrong with our thread." I would never order anything from them again. H&*
