and thread
The needle and thread you choose will depend
upon the fabric being stitched. The table on the
following page is a practical guide to thread and
needle selection. Refer to it before starting a
sewing project. Be sure to use the same size
thread in both the needle and bobbin.

needle.
2. Insert new needle in clamp, with flat side to
the left, and push it up as far as it will go.
