I've used rayon machine embroidery thread - both Isafil and Isacord. I think I prefer the Isafil to the Isacord since it's got a smoother weave and looks more like silk than the Isacord, where you can see the twist. Both are OK to work with, but I found that I had to double hitch them to stop them coming unwound from the bobbins. At that time I didn't know about using the little tiny hair grips on bobbins.
I have some pretty colours and have made some pretty lace samples with them. I have used it as a gimp in a couple of cases for fun (decent results).
