How does this thread compare to Madiera embroidery thread?

Poorly. Madiera is some of the best thread you can buy. This thread, unfortunately, must be poorly wound or poorly made ...about every third spool makes my Brother SE-400 machine jam up. It's very frustrating. I've started watching for when local fabric stores have Madiera or Sulky on sale and have been buying a few colors at a time.

It is so easy to thread with the easy thread feature. It is quick and easy. I love it as my eyes are not that good anymore.

I have both the 1034D and the Designio. The machines are mechanically identical. The only differences are cosmetic. They thread exactly the same way, and the user manuals are identical. I most often use thread made for sergers, but you can use any thread you like on a serger. I have used embroidery thread, for example. A very thick thread might not work as well, but it depends on what you want. Always test on a scrap of the fabric you plan to use, because you sometimes need to make a few adjustments to tension, stitch length, etc. for different fabrics to get a neat result.

This is a large spool of bobbin thread. It is too large for my machine, so I have a stand alone large thread holder that sits next to my machine, and I wind the bobbins from that. I also can use that stand if I buy large spools of embroidery thread that don't fit on my machine. The spool itself does not say if it is 100% polyester, but the description on Amazon says it is 60 wt polyester. I have been happy with the way this bobbin thread works with my embroidery thread.

I tried my 1500 yd sulky rayon embroidery thread on my 120 spool rack, and the pegs are not spaced far enough apart to put them side by side. I can fit them on, but need to leave every other peg either empty, or with a regular spool of thread in between (like Guterman274 yd or Coats & Clark 250 yd regular thread). If you want to fill all pegs with the larger embroidery threads, get the 33 or 60 Cone spool rack.

Honestly I am really new at embroidery. However they both have the same features such as built in fonts and such. The difference I 've noticed was the 700ii doesn't have a usb port you have to hook it to a computer. I am really happy with this machine tho. I wish I could be more help but facebook had a lot of groups you can join and are very helpful!

I am sorry to say I do not have nor have I seen your Brother 270D. These threads are on a 1100 yard mini-king spool. They are much shorter than a A/R, Madera, or Marathon spool, but they are fatter. The threads stitch very good. I suggest you call a local Brother dealer as they should know for sure or call Brother customer service. These threads are color coded exactly like Brother threads. I have a Quattro 6700 and the colors are loaded in the data base for cross reference. They are a good deal with the spool rack. I take this set out to sew all the Disney built in designs. Good luck

It is a thinner thread making you embroidery a less dense. If you are working on clothing I would you this thread.

Are you making a garment out of the suede and then doing the embroidery? The fabric is soft and has a nap. If you can email me at keelysgrma@q.com and give me your address I can mail you a sample of the fabric so you can try the bead work on it before you buy the fabric. I am not home right now and will be home Mon eve. I can do it at that time. Karen O'Keefe

anything of good quality. using substandard threads in your machine can goof up the inner workings of where the thread runs through your machine. also when you do some reading about doing machine embroidery, different threads can be used for different applications.

I'm sorry but I haven't tried 4 ply linen thread I have only tried the cotton thread and this thread I have no idea what the difference can be.

The thread is very thin and difficult to work with. I could not get it to work in my serger and I can get a lot of different kinds of threads to work in my serger but this thread was a no go no matter what I did with the tension. I would not recommend this thread.

I use Sew What Pro computer software along with the large hoop (they have a free 30 day trial, but I purchased it for $65 and it's SO WORTH IT). This allows you to edit the embroidery/appliqu to where it doesn't/does overlap how you want it to. You can do an appliqu in position 1 on the hoop and then move it to position 2 or 3 and put a name under the appliqu, etc. without re-hooping the fabric. It's amazing!

Actually I like this one (Australian) better, the other one came from Dr. Mercola....but it cost over $500 (came with two pillows).However, I just now noticed some of the stitching is coming loose in the Australian...

I THINK it is 11/16, finer than standard thread. It came with a plastic coupler that I used.

I have used the thread in my bobbin. It works great. It's thicker than some of the other thread (Aurifil) I use for quilting which I like. It really is just a matter of preference. I like the colors within the box. Hope this helps.

It feels just like fabric. Soft and pliable yet sturdy for embroidery machines. You can draw on it. Then it just dissolves away in water. Excellent product.
