Hi Everyone,

I am teaching a maintenance class for our local quilt guild tonight. Many of the things I cover are on this blog. I wanted to give everyone some links for needles and threads. I will post this to my links page later.

Needles

Threads

https://www.guetermann.com/medias/sys_master/8798744608798/Sewing+Thread.pdf

The Schmetz link is especially nice and they have educational information on their site, including some short videos. Superior Threads and Guetermann have a lot of information about threads and their uses.

May Your Thread Never Break!

Hello Everyone,

It would be nice to be able to do a blog post every day, but that is not realistic for two reasons.

First, each post requires that I have the right machine in the shop to be able to take pictures and show you what I’m talking about. Today I have these two machines on the benches.

The embroidery machine on the left is a BNT10L and the sewing machine on the right is a Bernina 730. Neither will be included in my next few blog posts.

The blog posts that I am currently working on are for sewing machine needle plates (includes quilting machines and embroidery machines). Also the difference between sewing machine dual feed systems and a sewing machine walking foot. These two items are often confused and many of you assume they are the same. So we will clear that up in my next blog post.  I will update everyone as these are published. But for now, I’m trying to finish up the machines I have in the shop so I can spend a few days with our family.

I know many of you are waiting for my next article. It is already in draft. I will publish at least two articles in February.

If you have questions or if there are topics you would like me to address, please leave me a comment.

May Your Thread Never Break!
