    Question Cuddle 3 fabric - Minky?
    I just had my quilt top (cottons) done and backed it with Cuddle 3 from Shannon Fabrics through Missouri Star Quilt Co. I'm going to machine bind using cotton fabrics left over from the quilt top. I will use my walking foot, I'm wondering if my usual needle will suffice or should I change it to another type? Currently I have a Schmetz 90/14. Thoughts? Suggestions?

    Thank you!

    If that size needle is the right size for the thread you are using it will be fine.

    Thank you grammysharon and others! It's my first time using this fabric and didn't want to start something that might not be the best method!
