They are all interchangable. Also, the Harbor Freight Tools blades are about 1/5th the cost of the quilting brands. Just sayin'!!!

I had good luck with the Harbor freight blades at first, but the last five have been pitiful. Hope the rest that I bought are better. :) I am glad to hear that all brands fit all...I didn't know that. Next time I have a 40% off coupon for Hancocks's, I will remember that.

that's where i've gotten mine.don't ever think that thr q.b. doesn't have an influance !!as soon as the thread went on line,ALL the stores ,on-line etc sold out & had a several mo. waiting list! it was worth the wait,believe me. the best part,they haven't raised their prices much,if at all
