i love my cheater needle it is a needle that you dont have to find the eye to insert the thread it has a opening in the top of the needle you lay the thread across it and pull down and it pops right in the eye !!! i hope that sounds right to you

easier to maneuver through the machine arm. I've quilted queen size quilts with my Bernina 1031, its only got 6.5" of throat space.

My first quilt was a king size that I quilted on my Singer sewing/embroidery machine. I just let it puddle around the machine. It was a BIG challenge getting it through that small area. It took a lot of pulling and tugging but worked pretty well. I'm getting ready to quilt another king size quilt for my son. I think this time I'll spray baste instead of pinning.
