    great news about the machine, I am bad at changing my needles, I usually only do it when they break or are too dull to go threw the fabric, I am not sure how high m y needle bill would be if I changed it as often as they want me to. Would sure add up.

    I switched to Organ Titanium needles. They are cheaper than the other brands of quality needles. I have found the titanium needles stay sharp much longer then the regular needles. I buy the ten needles to a pack, ten packs at a time here:

    These are the same needles he gave me - said they are the best choice for my machine. I'm now well-stocked and ready to follow orders.

    Best of all - my DH was with me and witnessed this whole exchange so he knows. Woohee :D :D

    I'm glad you posted this. I've got that model of machine also and nobody at the dealer ever mentioned what you wrote! Very handy to know. I'm sure it'll be very painful, but I'll have to remember to sew more now!

    How wonderful to get that message! I know I need to change my needles more often, but....
    Now I need to sew more too, so I can change the needles more often without feeling guilty! :?

    Let me ask. Does anyone know what it means when the lady at the shop said the gears need to be packed ? She wanted to have me leave one of my machines to service it but I didn't have the $ at the time. She said it needed to be cleaned, oiled and the
