I agree with Annette1952 - I also use the 14 topstitch needle on my Bernina 830, it has quite a long eye - no shredding and breaking...

edit. Just realized you are using Aerofil thread and I didn't know there was such a brand. My search doesn't show that it comes in hand quilting thread, just quilting thread, but I may have missed it. I don't know the quality of this thread. It sounds suspect for hand quilting.

I've had the same problem with most quilting threads. I found the least amount of shredding, smoking, or breaking, when using the Dual Duty Hand Quilting thread purchased from Walmart. I know others have stated some negative feedback on this thread, personally I find it works the best. I'm a hand quilter - it's the only type of quilting I do.

So last month I bought some aerofil thread I have been hand quilting on it and for some reason lately it has been breaking or shredding on me while quilting. I bought it off amazon but usually buy it from hawthorn but my husband said it shouldn't make a difference. I was wondering if this has ever happened to anyone else?
