I am frustrated with my needle/threads. For those of you who frequently do this type of applique, what needle size and brand do you find most satisfying? I would also like to know that about the thread type/size/brand that you prefer.

Currently I really like the straw needles but I can't see to thread the eye, so I use the Bolton (?? I think that's the name). However, it is not consistant with threading the straw needle.

I also have used the richard (hum...cant remember the name at the moment), that is a size 8. I like the needle but it isn't as easy work through the applique layers.

Would love to know what you're doing.

Thanks.
