Superior Titanium coated topstitch needles made by Organ. I use the 80/60 size for piecing. I use thin thread in the bobbin and for piecing.

This is also my favorite, but isn't it interesting how everyone has good luck with different needles, thread, etc.?

For hand or machine?
hand piecing I ( generally) use John James Sharps
for machine I use Schmetz Sharps, in the size appropriate for the thread I'm using.

I use Roxanne #10 sharps for hand piecing.
