NEEDLE, THREAD AND FABRIC CHART
Use the standard needles. The size of your needle should match 
the size of the thread and both should match the fabric.
For normal sewing, the same size and type of thread should be 
used in the bobbin as on the upper part of the machine.
Never use a bent or dull needle.
For  successful  sewing  of  stretch  fabrics  use  stretch  stitch 
needles.
