I know it's so satisfying to do it right.<br /><br />I use Superior's Kimono silk thread for applique and EPP sometimes. It is 100 wt, so I doubt it would leave holes either. You can order it direct from Superior online, and some quilt shops have it too. For when your own thread runs out!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01596185668087389269noreply@blogger.com
