I never use cotton thread for anything, as I live in a dry climate, and 
it breaks faster.  I think I read that poly has more give to it as 
well.  I just use the cheap poly cone threads that are made for 
sergers.  One question relating to threads I have is does anyone think 
that cotton covered poly threads are better or worse for regular 
machine sewing than all poly?  Joanns just discontinued the former.
