Do I need to use a ballpoint needle to sew T-shirts into a quilt?
Merry Christmas to everyone! |
I didn't, I've made several and just used a regular needle.

Thanks so much for your fast reply.
I need to have them done by New Years. Merry Christmas! |
Good Luck and Merry Christmas.

good luck

I just finished making two of them and just used a regular needle!! I didn't have any problems!

I think it depends on your machine. Some machines are picky. I made 7 tshirt quilts and had alot of issue with breaking thread, then someone suggested I use the ballpoint needle and viola! it solved my problem. Merry Christmas

Thanks :thumbup: |
I think if you use interfacing on the back so they don't stretch, then a regular needle is what you need. However, if you are just sewing through the knit, a ball point needle will be better.

I use a regular needle and a walking foot.
