Frequently Asked Questions

What weight is Omni thread and what is it best for?

Omni is a 40-weight, 2-ply polyester thread — the most versatile weight for quilting and garment sewing. It’s fine enough to disappear in piecing seams but strong enough to handle longarm quilting at high speeds. The 2,000-yard mini cone format is ideal for both home machines and longarm use.

What bobbin style do I need — Class 15 or L Style?

Class 15 (also called A-style) bobbins fit most Brother, Babylock, Janome, and some Bernina home machines. L-style bobbins are used in many longarm quilting machines. Check your machine manual to confirm the correct bobbin class before ordering.

Does polyester thread work well on cotton quilts?

Yes — polyester thread is stronger than cotton and will not break down over time, making it an excellent choice for quilts that will be washed frequently. The concern about polyester cutting cotton fibers over decades has been largely disproven with modern 40-weight polyester thread used at appropriate tension.
