    So I just bought a Fusion from HandiQuilter and am wondering if anyone knows of a centrally located reference guide for what needles to use with what threads (top or bottom).

    Does anyone have any insights?

    Thanks,
    Marcia

    The Superior Threads website (www.superiorthreads.com) has an on line reference chart for thread and needles. When you get to their site, click the education button and then reference guides.

    I also just bought a new Fusion - moving up from my Handiquilter 16. I have found that the Glide thread works best of all and almost never needs the tension adjusted once you find the best tension for it. I also use it in the bobbin or use magnaglide prewound bobbins.
