Suggestions for needle sizes? I have a combo sewing/embroidery machine and just wonder what size needles everyone is using for what? Do you change out to an embroidery needle (Schmetz has them) when you go from piecing/sewing to embroidery? Or do you just use a regular sewing machine needle when you embroider and piece? I have so many different needles from over the years, and I am getting confused. When I went to buy new ones at JA, they had machine needles for Quilting that indicated "sharp", microtex sharp needles, embroidery needles, and regular needles - all for the sewing machines. I must be getting too old to figure this out. Any suggestions appreciated.
