She listed 5 different needles -- should I get the SMx1014A for quilting -- I looked the needles up and that is an 80 I think?

Billy did you have a chance to look at this post? I want to order some needles to try on my Singer 9W, I pulled up Charlee's post on the Schmetz needles and I need some information on which one to try for piecing quilts?

Any thoughts?
