It all depends on the fabric, If I am working with denim, I would use the heavier needle, but for the most part I keep my 90/14 stocked up. TTFN & Happy Quilting, Linda

drj2athome OFFLINE Posts: 640 Thank you received: 3	Thanks for all these great answers lately. I guess I made a good purchase as these spools are of great colors that I love, so they will be good for quilting.
