    Thank you, again. I think I'm going to try to pick up some of that Mara 70, if I can ever get somewhere that carries it. If not, I will order some.

    I don't know about on here, but I found one in the owner's manual for my machine. To my embarrassment, it very clearly says to use a size 14 needle for synthetic, cotton-covered-polyester, and...
