When machine quilting, do you use a diffeerent needle when you piece and then quilt? I just realized that I had been using a size 14 needle which with my machine is red for quilting fabrics.
But for some reason I think that for the longest time I was using a size 11 or 12 when I first starting sewing to piece with.
Does this sound right? But I don't remember when I bought
my needles last and why I bought just a package of size 14.
