I use R/A poly as much as I can. Poly has the advantage of not "aging" like
rayon does. Over time and depending on your climate, rayon thread dries out
and breaks easier. Rayon is a natural fiber, so it isn't as strong as poly.
Rayon does have a nicer sheen. Poly lasts forever. Black rayon thread was
always my nightmare...too much pigment to make the fibers black. I think with
rayon your stitches per minute is slower too, to help it keep from breaking.
For me, I go with poly.
