Gee, Taria, we must have found a great price because my notes say I haven't
bought any needles this entire year. If someone doesn't remember our site,
I can go look back through my 05 notes. If you want a needle that you don't
have to think much about, the green band Schmetz seems to do very well on
just about everything. I do change over to a tough one if I am Forced to
hem jeans and might, maybe, change to one with a long scarf if I'm using a
fussy metallic. And marvelous big huge best wishes for the escrow goings
on. Polly [the numbers on the Schmetz 'quilting' needle packs say 130/705
H-Q, 75/11.]

I am trying to remember the link for the good prices on Schmetz machine
needles. Anyone have it handy?

While we are talking needles what do you use for machine quilting
and why? Type and size. Do you use different ones for poly and
cotton?

I have a couple of boxes of universal 80's that I use as much as I can
but they are not always great for free motion work.

We are in the last week of escrow if everything falls into place. Thursday
the big move day. Please cross your fingers and muster up
any good thoughts and prayers that things go smoothly.
I just might unearth a machine soon!
TIA,
Taria
