I'm glad to hear something good about them - thanks. :)

The quilt in on an Inspira frame for FMQ and I use an office chair to roll from side to side.
Update on the needles: Having the eye in the center is a weak spot. I've broken one needle and the 2nd is slightly bent. I still love them. Tomorrow I'm going to my LQS to see about ordering a box. Having thought about it I've decided to look at broken needles as expendable tools. The reduction in pain is worth the expense.
