Sewing Needle and Thread Tips
Did you know that July 25 is National Thread the Needle Day? There are several meanings of the phrase, “Thread the Needle,” but our favorite is definitely the literal meaning—taking a thread and guiding it through the needle to sew! That’s why we’ve put together some of our favorite tips and tricks for needles and thread. Plus, we have a giveaway with some great items just waiting for one lucky winner to “thread the needle” on their next project. Be sure to get your entry in!
Machine Threading
Threading an 8 Series BERNINA
The first thing to be noticed about an 8 Series BERNINA is that it is different. Starting with the Triple Spool Holder and the telescoping thread guide, it’s clear from the outset that this machine won’t be threaded like your typical sewing machine. And there is a good reason for it! Review the threading process for the 8 Series BERNINA machines, with tips and tricks along the way to get the most out of the threading options offered.
How to Thread an Overlocker
Do you dread to thread? Overlockers or sergers of all kinds have a reputation of being impossible to thread, but overcoming this dread of threading is key to your successful experience with this machine. The BERNINA L 450 and BERNINA L 460 Overlockers were designed with ease of use in mind. Many added features make this machine simple and understandable. To learn how to thread an overlocker and break the myth once and for all!
BERNINA L Series Overlocker: Will It Thread?
One of the best things about an overlocker is the vast number of threads you can use through the loopers. Using decorative threads in conjunction with the ability to change so many settings on the machine means the stitch possibilities are limitless. Air threading makes changing the threads so easy that there really is no reason not to give all the threads a try. See how easy it is with different threads, allowing for numerous creative possibilities!
Longarm Quilting: Threading and Basic Techniques
New longarm users are always interested in the threading of the machine. Some longarms are a little different from others, but we want to share how easy it is to thread our BERNINA Q Series machines. The threading is all in the front, so there is no need to go to the back or reach all the way to the back. Learn how to thread a longarm step-by-step!
Needle Tips and Tricks
Sewing Needle Guide: What to Use and Why
Regardless of how simple or sophisticated your sewing/embroidery machine is, the needle is at the very heart of the stitch formation process. Its role is to deliver thread from the top and through the project while the machine’s hook gets a hold of the thread to intertwine it with the bobbin thread. With the right needle, your machine will stitch away without a glitch. With the wrong needle, even the best machine in the world can skip a stitch . . . or more. See what types of needles one should keep on hand in the sewing room to cover regular sewing, embroidery, and quilting.
How to Pair Thread Weight with Needle Size
How many times have you been quilting, thread painting, or for that matter working on any project, and the thread keeps shredding, breaking, or skipping stitches? The most common response is that something is wrong with the thread or something is defective with the machine. We have all been there but the most likely culprit to your dilemma is the wrong size needle paired with the thread you are using. Learn how to pair thread weight and needle size to achieve the best results possible!
Needles and Threads for Machine Embroidery + Free Embroidery Design
When first starting machine embroidery, you’ll be adding a lot of new goodies to your sewing basket, including more needles and threads. Both the needle and thread work hand-in-hand to give you the best results. Learn about the top three needles and top three threads for machine embroidery.
What Needles to Use on BERNINA Longarm Machines
BERNINA Q Series machines use domestic needles to create those beautiful BERNINA stitches. This opens up the opportunity to use a wide range of needles, threads, and techniques. Check out the types of needles and threads to use on your BERNINA Longarm. The sky is the limit!

HAHAHAH “granny panties” I don’t want to see! Is the granny also wearing the leggings? I don’t think I want to see that either!
-
-
Next needle project? A Quilt as You Go bag. So fun!
-
I’m making cross back aprons for gifts this year. So my Bernina Jubilae 801 is working hard for me. Love my Bernina!
-
Finishing a block exchange quilt to donate to charity.

-
I have a quilted table runner that I started and then didn’t finish last winter – that will be the next thing.
-
Don’t you feel SOOO virtuous when you tackle a UFO!!! I know I do!
-
-
I will joyfully be threading the needle on my Bernina to quilt a beautiful throw made of bright happy batiks.

Like me! I’m just finishing up my “3D Butterflies Fly Free” in over 45 different bright batiks–such a joyful lap quilt to make!
-
-
My next project will be a fall quilt for the back of our couch, part of a Christmas present for my husband.
-
Hmmmm, so does he get it in the fall or at Christmas? I did a Valentine’s lap quilt for my husband office/TV room, but I didn’t get the label finished until his birthday in May. (I wrapped it twice–hahah!)
-
-
I’m doing some hand embroidery. Thanks!
-
So glad to hear it’s not a lost art!
-
-
Currently working on a log cabin quilt for a beloved librarian.
-
“Beloved librarian”–what beautiful words!
-
-

-
I will be quilting fabric to make 2 pillow shams for my guest bedroom.

Nice that you’re doing something for yourself/your home. Somehow I’m always the last on my list. I hate to say how many years I’ve put off my pillow shams!
-
-
I will be threading the needle to complete the reproduction of my grandson’s baby quilt that was destroyed in a house fire. Everyone was safe and well. Yet, this 35 year old grieved for his lost quilt. Thankfully, he rejoiced when I told him I could reproduce it.
-
That’s great! So sweet that he grieved for it–it lets you know he cares!
-
That is AWESOME! So glad everyone is okay!
-
-
The next item I will be “threading my needle” for is the fourth block in Corey Yoder’s Spring Brook Blossoms Block of the Month quilt.

Ready to thread the needle to get started on a Children’s Corner Bunny Knit Nightie.

-
I have to hem a pair of pants for a friend.
-
Fortunately, Bernina has such a great hemming foot. I’ve done miles of hems…for myself (5’2″) and my mother (4’10”). I think I could hem in my sleep! I know your friend appreciates it–or at least SHOULD!
-
-
I’m starting my Witches Night Out, with All Hallow’s Eve 🙂
-
I am working on finishing projects this year! I made a list of 30! Half way there!
-
-
I’m threading my needles to smock my 3 granddaughters Christmas dresses- I’m hoping starting early keeps me from sewing Christmas Eve. My Bernina and I have spent many late nights right before a big event!
-
Amen to that! I never seem to get ahead of the time curve, but getting Christmas done (or at least started) in July is such a good idea!
-
-
I’m starting to quilt an American flag quilt for a neighbor — new needles for sure!
-
My next project I will be threading the needle for is a baby quilt.
-
My next project with be a couple of water bottle carrier bags to take to theme parks for my daughters.

I had to look that up!! Nice handbag! Have to remember that for later!
-
-
I’m working on two different 3 Yard Quilts. One is a wedding gift and one is for my Aunt.
-
Next project: Most likely a machine cover. My poor naked machines need to be covered with Cotton Shot 🙂
-
A couple years ago I found a bunch of machine covers for different seasons….but I’m not away from it often enough to cover it…and never got them made. Good for you!
-
-
Next project is a set of place mats that I will be threading the needle.
-
I recently bought a quilt-as-you-go set of placemats that are cute, but I can’t decide what colors/fabrics to use. Your comment reminded me that I need to do that.
-
-
The next needle I thread will be for a Kaffe Fassett quilt.
-
Love, love, love Kaffe! I have a couple designed in his style, but haven’t cut them out yet. I’ve been collecting his fabrics for a couple years.
-
-
Threading needle to make a stuffed bear with my granddaughter
-
I’ve recently made several soft cuddly bears out of vintage chenille bedspreads! People are falling in love with them. Alas, no granddaughter to give one to!
-
-
Next project I will be “threading the needle for” is quilting a quilt that has been waiting for me to get some confidence in quilting to tackle! Free motion with my stitch regulator on my Bernina 770 QE❤️
-
The next project I will be threading my needle for is actually for my first ever quilting project! Nothing to big or fancy just yet, gonna start with some 2.5 x 2.5 pieces of fabric and make (or try to make) a holiday pot holder or 2, I am trying to build up my material supply and found some fat quarters on sale in halloween colors 🙂
-
My next project is learning how to use embroidery on a flash drive
-
Super easy. Plug and go! You’ll love it!
-
-
“thread the needle” – I’m quilting with my new BSR foot!
-
I will be threading the needle for sewing the binding on not one, not two but three quilts! Winter is coming. . .
-
My next project for “Thread the Needle” is a set of 6 Christmas stockings for my family.
-
I hope they are all different, just for variety. Six is a lot! However, sewing is much faster than knitting!
-
-
My next project I will be threading a needle for is a baby gift!
-
The next time I thread my needle, I’ll be working on a Dear Jane using 30s repros 🙂
-
My next thread the needle project is making crate pads for dogs and cats to sleep on…
-
That’s nice and cuddly for them. My friend wanted to use my 12″ Platter hot pads for her CAT! I was a little shocked, but she says when her cat sees something like that, she curls up on it!
-
How wonderful! Would love to know more! Is there a pattern, or just measurements?
-
-
I am so often surprised and yet grateful when I see that other Quilters, and those who sew, applique and embroider have the same questions or dilemmas that I have. The sewing community at Bernina always has so many participants that are willing and able to help out with answers. I am so thankful for the assistance. I makes me able to continue with the joy of sewing! Thank you all for your kindness.
-
HAHAH Just ask me–I’ve made EVERY mistake in the book, but hey! That’s how we learn!
-
-
The next project I am threading the needle for is to monogram towels for a wedding gift.
-
I’ve done that a lot, too. I think it’s so special.
-
-
Right now, I am sewing a dog leash and collar with reflective thread for my white collie.
-
Fantastic idea for reflective thread. I have some but never could quite figure out where/how to use it!
-
-
So many sewing projects, so little time! Here’s my immediate to-do list: embroider a quilt label for the Double Wedding Ring quilt I have made for my sister’s wedding next month. Sew baby projects for a craft show that will hopefully take place the first week in December. I’d like to try a strip quilt for charity. Any of the above would be enhanced by the goodies in your package that I would like to win!
-
My next needle project will be a bag I’m making as part of a zoom Bag Boot Camp at my dealer’s. Will be using a variety of fabrics and techniques – needle and feet changes to make the most use of Bernina features!
-
I’m threading my needle to add the binding for a table runner. After that, I’m rethreading for an embroidery project.
-
I will be threading up to embroider some mug rugs as gifts
-
What kind of patterns do you use? They sound cute.
-
-
Finishing up some gifts. Table runners.

I just did a “Running with the Stars” quilt runner–well, actually two–I made one 42″ and another 84″ for a bigger table–it was a July 4th project.
-
-
I will be threading the needle on my Hunter Star quilt.
-
I just saw a video of that. Pretty block!
-
-
The next time I thread my machine it will be to complete a quilt as you go quilt that have been putting off for a while.
-
I am starting to do edge to edge quilt embroidery on a quilt for a friend..It is to be a surprise for her.
-
Lucky friend.
-
-
My next project will be a Halloween table topper.
-
What does it look like? I can just imagine a big spider web and pumpkin spider. Oh, wait–I did that as a wall hanging using bias tape. HA!
-
-
I’ll be making a quilt for a bunk bed. Our grandson had Grandpa make him a full size loft bed, so we have the bunk beds now and his sister needs a matching embroidered design quilt for her top bunk. This gets the kids off the air mattress! We are choosing designs from mermaids, butterflies, flowers or a mix. So excited!
-
I’ll be sewing small items for sale to raise money for our local food bank. Love my little bit “senior” Bernina 200E. A quilt for great-granddaughter waiting in the wings. Appreciate all the informational articles that arrive each week.
-
I would love this thread to help finish up the “My Daughter” quilt that I am making.
-
I am going to piece a quilt for a disabled vet I met this summer.
-
How very nice of you! I applaud you. My husband is retired AF, and I am so thankful he didn’t come home disabled.
-
-
As soon as I finish sewing, quilting, and embroidering all the items for a charity auction kitchen basket, I will thread the needle for free standing lace bookmarks to give as Christmas gifts. It will be the first time I’ve used metallic thread!
-
Good luck. Be sure to loosen the tension and use a metallica needle. I love metallic thread, but it’s not as flexible and breaks easily. Also be sure to slow down the machine. Great idea, though. I made a bunch of lace angels as Christmas ornaments one year. I even framed three on a piece of royal blue satin–so pretty. The new embroidery designs are just scrumptious!
-
-
I never win anything, but I’ll sign up just in case. Hoping. . .
-
I am making two dolls for my godchildren. I change needles and threads frequently depending on the type of fabric I’m using.
-
How sweet! My mother and grandmother painstakingly made me lots of Barbie clothes. I’ve made dolls, too. My mother even got a bunch of ladies together who worked on dolls once a month instead of playing bridge. At the end of the year they gave them to a Christmas toys for children charity. I always thought that was a great idea but never have found anyone to play dolls with!
-
-
Um – just 1? My next project is to finish a leather vest I have been making for my husband out of Pampero Rum leather pouches.
-
HAHAHAHAHA Just one? I could probably give a list of 25 I’m currently working on and another 100 on the back burner!
-

-

-
My next project is more of my “quarantine quilts” for a few more friends. I made bunches of these simple lap quilts last fall/winter.

Good for you! I’m afraid all I did was make about 500 masks, but I hear of others who made 2 or 3 times that amount.
-
-
My next project will be a receiving blanket, bib, and burp cloth for a soon-to-be new arrival in our family, but first these will be entered in our local county fair.
-
Double the pleasure, double the fun–I love to put things in the fair that will become presents. If they win, you can either stick in the ribbon or put a note that it made a ribbon–such fun for them to share.
-
-
My next Project will be my first quilt on my Q24. Wish me luck!
-
I think the next sewing project I need to thread the needle for will be Christmas placemats.

I’m sewing a variety of bags to share with friends and family.

-
-
Double wedding ring arcs…lots and lots of arcs.

-
I am planning on threading the needle to make some Halloween kid quilts for charity.
Hope this will help me get better at sewing and quilting.
The right needles and threads can make a difference. Thank you.-
How fun! I’m sure they’ll love them. I did a simple one called My Monster for a young nephew–it has 3 eyes and “sharp” 3D teeth. Last year I made a pumpkin quilt called the Jackson-O-Lantern Five and sent it to his family of five.
-
-
I’ll be making a king sized quilt for my son and his wife for Christmas on my Tula sewing machine, which I love!
-
WOW–that’s a big project! I have a longarm that gets that big, but I haven’t been brave enough to tackle the piecing of a king yet. Good luck! Is your machine pink? I haven’t seen one.
-
-
I’ll be hemming the dress I’ll wear to my son’s wedding 🙂

Congrats on getting your son married. I can’t get mine to even date and Covid didn’t help!

So many fun projects have been listed–it feels like a virtual quilting bee or sewing bee. I’m threading my 790 over and over and over again to finished up a 3D Butterflies Fly Free quilt pattern I want to finish and publish this weekend. It has 32 3D butterflies, each of a different color batik and other darker color machine-appliqueed bodies–so I’m having a great time using up all my old threads. I stippled background on longarm but quilted inside each wing and the triangular side pieces (echo) on the sewing machine–again using lots of old threads to match all the colors. Trying hard to use them up before they get all dried out! And just using all those colors makes me happy–like having a 128 box of crayons.

Winning this amazing set of fabrics and thread would be a perfect start to our journey.

My next project, after I open the threads and prizes I hope to win, will be to make a very special quilt for a very special niece. I have 8 nieces, and I have the only boy in the family,. Each of my nieces is wonderful, but this one is outstanding! Racquel is as smart as she is beautiful and as she is kind. When her mother, my younger sister, passed from Pancreadic Cancer at a young age, Racquel fell apart. She was very much like my sister in her beauty and her personality. On the first holiday after my suster’s passing, my niece called to ask ME to go to her family home to have dinner, Her thinking was so loving. She knew I would be missing my sister deeply also. So this young college girl went out of her way to worry about me. That is one exceptional young lady. She is now engaged to be married to a young man who has a heart as kind as her heart. I would be so pleased to make my next project a beautiful, embroidered quilt for her and her future husband. A handmade quilt, I hope will wrap her in love, understanding, faith and trust. It will allow me to demonstrate how much she is still loved, and that she is not alone. She will be covered in love forever, and perhaps, in due time, the quilt will be passed down to her children along with the story behind it, the story that love doesn’t die away. Love grows in different ways and takes many different paths, Love, like a special quilt, is an heirloom to be handed down from one generation to another, through the years, filled with the love of so many souls and traditions.

I hope I am not too late to enter this, but there was something wrong with your system. I had opened an account back in May when I bougtht my 790plus and got the free serger. I had to register them but when I tried to enter this, it would not acknowledge me. So I opened another account and it would not work either so now a week or so later, it has me logged in. I wonder if I now have two accounts. The email would be the same. Anyway, I would love to win anything. Thank you for making such great products. I wish I would have bought one long ago.

I forgot the contest rules. I will be sewing practice pieces getting used to my new machines. Thank you.
