For embroidery by machine I use Marathon.. why?.. beacuse I 389 spools of it, my machine likes it and ..well I have 389 spools of it. That said I like the colors of Robison Anton the best but my machine does not really like rayon (boo-h00). I use Mettler for clothing and quilting and a wild varitey of other threads for anything else. For handsewing I am also VERY guilty of the too long thread but using Thread Heaven on it lets me get away with this..

I use thread from the quilt shop and know about different types and such but I have never really thought about how one brand would work better than another. I usually use cotton and know that I do not like silky kinds. Thanks for the thought provoking post!
