Re: One-question Poll
I like Aurifil for piecing because I think it has less lint.
I like Madera for embroidery because of the sheen and all the colors.
Are you going to post the results???
Thanks!

Re: Pre wound bobbins colored thread for Janome 12000
As long as they are good quality, i.e. no burrs on the edges, no cracks, etc. they should be fine. Note that Class 15 bobbins are sometimes sold as type A.
