there are self threading needles for your problem, they have a tiny slot in the eye where you can slip the thread in and then you can bury the thread.

I agree with Sewnoma. Love those needles you don't have to thread. They are a great way to bury too-short threads.

Fray BLOCK dries SOFT, Fray CHECK does not.

Unless the quilt is to be judged, I would, also, just remove the quilting stitches for a couple of inches, bury the thread and requilt the last few inches. As my grandmother would say, "Nobody'll notice it on a galloping horse!"

http://www.joann.com/june-tailor-fra...z/4649497.html. I've used this product. It dries soft. A small dot where the thread enters the fabric might be enough to keep the thread from popping out, if it's really short. Warning...the stuff is really runny, so applying with a toothpick after you squirt it out might give you more control on the amount you want and where you want it.

If it isn't too many places. I would use a straight pin in to unsew about 2inches back, tie and bury the ends, re-insert my quilt in the machine and re-quilt the 2 inches and knot and bury again.
