Thepolyparrot, thanks for the tip-that helped a lot! I wrote ADJUST PRESSURE FOOT!!! on the side of my walking foot so I'll remember for next time. :)

If you want a great fun class from Bella's; try the techniques class. You learn great techinques and it's a QAYG so when it's done it's done. I've also taken the cathedral window class there and now go to the embroidery club once a month at night so that I can learn new techniques.

Put a 'dot' where I wrote dot---QB doesn't accept yahoo HTML....

This is where I buy mine in bulk. I couldn't believe the prices !!!

I've bought from this company a few times - they're quick and easy.

100 Organ Brand Needles in sizes 9-20 $13 + $2 shipping:

Another one, also reliable:

Never used this one, but they've got fairly good feedback and they sell for about the same price in assortments:

These are Korean Orange brand needles, which have turned out to be indistinguishable from Schmetz or Organ brand for me over the last few months - very cheap, but apparently high quality:
