Newbie here. I have watched lots of tutorials to learn how to do a few little bits of applique, but I was wondering if you're supposed to change anything besides the stitch on your sewing machine...the holes in my fabric at the needle entry points are so big that if I hold it up the light shines through them. Maybe that is just a cheap fabric, but are you supposed to use a smaller needle or something? I am posting a pic of my work but it is hard to see the needle holes. I think my standard sewing machine needle is size 14.
