This thread is the real deal! I could tell immediately this thread was a better quality just from the feel of it when I touched it. I normally use a 50wt cotton thread but I’ve always either purchased from a big box store or a cheaper cotton thread from an online store. The normal thread I buy usually fluffs up some and the cheaper online store brand I purchased caused a lot of lint build up in my sewing machine. I have heard good things about Aurifil so I thought I’d order some and give it a try. I sewed for about 6 hours and there was no fluff caught in my seams today. There was also let lint on the needle and press or foot at the end of the day. I didn’t look at my bobbin case, but I’m willing to bet there isn’t much lint to clean out right now. I am very please with this purchase and I think this thread is a high quality.
As for the color, Dove is a very pale gray color. It has a matte finish and is very strong. I used it on pink, red, black, and white fabric. It worked fine for my quilt blocks. I don’t worry about an exact match when I’m piecing.

Hoping this solves my lint problem
Edit: I said I would come back once I used this. I'm back to say Aurifil solved the lint problem in my sewing machine. I no longer have to constantly clean lint from my bobbin case. Changing to this thread made all the difference in the world. It costs more but in my opinion totally worth it.My first review: I purchased Aurifil thread because I was having a lint problem with the cheap thread I was buying from Wal-Mart. It was causing my sewing machine problems. I commented about it on a YouTube help video and a lady told me she once had the same problem. She stopped buying the $1.00 thread at Wal-Mart and changed to Aurifil and her problem was solved. I haven't used it yet because I just got it. I'm hoping the lint around my bobbin will be less or none at all once I start using the Aurifil. I took pictures so that you can see the size. I was expecting a much larger spool of thread by the looks of the picture provided on Amazon. It doesn't really matter though about the size. It's the amount of thread on the spool. Right?I'll come back and update after I use this thread for a while and let you know if I'm seeing less lint and if my sewing machine stops clogging up and causing it to stop sewing.
