Just sharing something with all my other fleece sewers. I was having issues with breaking thread, skipping stitches and most recently broken needles. I thought at first it was my thread or possibly the tension in my machine. Adjusted both and still having the issues. I had also recently switched to a different brand of needles and thought maybe that was causing the newest issue of needles breaking but still couldn't figure out the thread breaking and skipping stitches. I've always used denim needles with only occasional issues. Decided to do some investigating about my machine and which needles I should be using for fleece. Turns out I should be using a ballpoint/jersey needle. Good grief 🤦‍♀️. Could have avoided all these issues had I investigated earlier. I'm hoping I can save someone else the headaches by sharing my experience. These are the brand of needles I prefer to buy. I get them on Amazon.

I have another shop closure coming up. Many of you know that I took nearly a month off last year in November because of a family emergency. My mom suffered a massive stroke on November 10th. Her recovery is very slow. They also have determined that she is suffering from alzheimers, so this slows both her mental and physical recovery from the stroke. I will be going up to visit my family again from February 23rd thru March 5th. The shop will be closed during this time. Thank you all for your patience with my limited schedule and less frequent pre-made sales.
