We have a Fusion on order and would appreciate knowing what threads (type/weight/manufacturer etc) top and bottom you use on your machine.

Good morning.

I had my Fusion/Pro-Stitcher installed the end of July. It's so much fun. I've used Can Sew and Superior threads and both have worked wonderfully. I love the bottom line thread from Superior in the bobbin. It's really fine thread so a lot will go onto the bobbin.

Enjoy your new machine.

I use Superior Threads primarily - So Fine right now, but I'll be running some King Tut and YLI in the near future to see how they do.

Ok - I've run some YLI thread. Since it's 100% cotton, it generates a lot of lint. It's about the weight of King Tut. I used So Fine in the bobbin.

I really like it - beautiful color, no thread breakage. The only downside that I can see is the lint. You'll be cleaning out the bobbin case often & oiling more often than usual.

I "can" use any thread. I choose to use mostly Superior So Fine and bottomline threads because they work well for detail work. These are poly threads and are SO much cleaner than the cottons.
