Bookmarked - thanks!

Since we began restoring machines we have become very needle savy and know there is a huge differnce in brands. We use every sale we can to get them for even a few pennies less as we go through so many. When we meet someone who may be suffering arthrites, stoke or any other imparment of fine motor skills we recommend self threading needles and large weight needles like a 100/16 or higher so the eye is easier to thread. Course admittedly I like the big eye too.

Great info!
A quilt teacher got me on to the Microtex by Schmetz.
I love them. Us them for everything! Piecing, blanket stitch around applique .Goes through all applique layers like butter.
Going to give my friend some to try.

Thank You !

I took a class with Judy Irish and she uses Metallic needles for everything. I'm going to try metallic and your Microtex needles and see what works in my machine.
