Frequently Asked Questions
- Is So Fine! designed for domestic machines or longarm?
- So Fine! is primarily designed for domestic sewing and quilting machines. For longarm quilting, Superior’s Omni (40wt) is the more commonly used production thread. So Fine! can be used in longarms but is most at home in domestic machines.
- What is the advantage of 50wt vs 40wt for domestic quilting?
- 50wt thread is finer than 40wt, sinking more deeply into fabric layers and creating a subtler, more refined quilting line. For free-motion domestic machine quilting where thread visibility should be minimal, 50wt provides a more polished result.
- Is Snow White the right choice for white fabric?
- Yes — 401 Snow White is the standard production white for So Fine! users, appropriate for white, bright white, and most light-fabric domestic machine quilting.
- What needle size is recommended?
- 70/10 or 80/12 Microtex or quilting needle for best results with So Fine! 50wt.
- Can So Fine! be used in both top and bobbin?
- Yes — using So Fine! in both produces perfectly balanced stitches on domestic machines.
