What is included in a Quilters Select 60wt Tube of 5?
Each tube contains 5 spools of Quilters Select 60-weight thread in a coordinated color grouping — typically neutrals, earth tones, or matching families. The tube packaging keeps spools organized and makes them easy to store and transport.
Why buy thread in a tube set instead of individual spools?
Tube sets offer better value per spool and give you a curated color assortment selected to work together harmoniously. They are perfect for quilters who regularly use 60-weight thread and want a variety of shades at the ready.
Can 60-weight thread be used in the bobbin?
Yes — 60-weight thread is an excellent choice for the bobbin when paired with a heavier decorative top thread. It creates minimal bulk and helps keep the tension balanced when working with thicker or metallic top threads.
Are the Quilters Select 60wt tubes good for longarm quilting?
Yes — Quilters Select 60-weight thread performs well in both domestic and longarm machines. The fine weight is particularly valued for stitch-in-the-ditch and detail quilting where visibility of stitching should be minimized.
