Watch the Replay of Schmetz: What Needle Should I Use?
Broken threads, skipped stitches, puckered fabrics… sound familiar? You might be surprised to learn the issue often isn’t your machine, it’s your needle.
Rhonda Pierce, VP and Marketing Director of Euro-notions and spokesperson for SCHMETZ, recently joined us to talk about all things needles. In this virtual lecture, she helped attendees understand what the numbers mean on the needle package, when and why we should change our needles, and which ones we should use for specific projects.
Attendees received so much knowledge packed into one hour that we knew we had to share the replay with you, so you can benefit from learning how to choose the right needle for your project.
Whether you’re brand new to sewing or have years of experience, you’ll walk away with practical tips you can use immediately. If you’re experiencing issues like broken threads, skipped stitches, or puckered fabrics, this class is for you!
Even the most experienced sewist will take away a fun (and useful!) tidbit from this class.
Are you looking to put what you have learned to practice? Stock up on needles, we’ve got special bundles ready for you!
