NollR Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi all! Someone brought up the use of Wonderfil thread for my long arm . Anyone who has used it - what are your thoughts for it on the long arm and/or domestic machine? I'd like to hear from those who know! Thanks everyone!:cool:;):cool:;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Von Roberts Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I use Wonderfil konfeti in my Bernina 150 for both piecing and quilting. I like it very much, and much prefer it to other threads, also there is a great range of threads in all colours including multi . Yvonne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.A Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I've used most of their line (Konfetti, Silco, Decobob, Invisafil, Accent, Spagetti) on either my George machine or my DSM. IMHO it's a really good product. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neher-in-law5 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I have used Invisafil on George and my Pfaff with no problems. I have also used the Invisafil in my George bobbins wound with the Turbo winder, they last forever compared to some other threads. I would keep getting it.

carolinequilts Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I use Decobob in my bobbin all the time and it is great. I was told that the Decobob and Invisifil are the same thread, but Decobob is 80 wt and Invisafil is 100 wt. You can get about 120 yds on a bobbin with the Decobob and about 140 yds of Invisafil. I like to use the Invisifil instead of monofilament. You don't see it at all. I like the Decobob in the bobbin instead of Invisifil because I do like to see the thread a bit. I love both threads. I also have used the Tuiti (variegated) and Konfetti (solid). They are 50 wt cotton. They have lots of nice variegated colours. I haven't tried their heavier threads yet. Oh, and their thread cards are free! With the ones I've tried, I've liked them all. You can get it wholesale in British Columbia Canada if you have a business license.

Von Roberts Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Forgot to say in my earlier message last night that I also use Invisafil thread for machine quilting. My favourite as was recommended by our distributor is tan IF.464. Its seems to take on what ever colour fabric you are sewing. Much better to use than nylon filament. Recently I made a quilt for my niece using a yellow fairy panel in the centre and used this Invisafil. It looked great as it covered creams, yellows, greens and browns, so no need to change threads when using this colour. I heartily recommend this Yvonne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseCity Quilter Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 I use invisifil and love it, much better than monofiliament thread. I am also trying spagetti- one of their very heavy threads. I had some customers who wanted a heavier thread on their flannel quilts. Anyways I like the spagetti, but found you do need to wind a bobbin with it- prewounds did not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
