can I use this for a sewing machine needle, or just hand sewing needles?

Hi, It might be possible, but the eye of the needdle needs to be facing the white buttons you see in the picture, those white buttoms move side ways and will insert thebthread on the eye of the needle.

J. Mugg, This is a 3/4 thread serger. You can sew with one needle or two needles. Though it does not technically sew a straight stitch, this being a 3/4 should do what you need it to do. Thank you,

I would be hesitant to use them around needles. That would be a manufacturer questions, but I would be really surprised if they said yes.

This is for threading needles. You could put any kind of thread or floss in it to thread into something else.

This machine is only set up for thread. Yarn would get bogged down in the bobbin case. You should look at commercial sewing machines to use with yarn. :)

Good Question! These are one of the best universal needles on the market. I have a small sewing machine shop and you would be surprised how many people use the wrong needle. This one should do a good job for us. We use them for our Brothers, Necchi, and Toyota Machines on the floor.

Yes. Just be sure to purchase a needle specific for sewing heavy fabrics like denim.

I'm sorry that I can't help you much; I haven't tried using that type of thread with any needle. I believe that embroidery needles have wider eyes, and top-stitching needles have longer eyes than the denim needles (which are designed primarily to penetrate heavy fabrics.) One of those might work better for you. Good luck!

Your owners manual, page 39, gives specs on the recommended needles. Embroidery they recommend size 75/11. You can use any brand, as long as they are specifically for home sewing machines (back of the post is flat) These needles are correct, but I did not like the quality, they broke frequently and had rough spots that caused the thread to fray and fabric to pucker and run. Also their ad is misleading, the price is for only 10 needles, even though the picture shows a 500 pack The Organ brand in the gray pack are a much better quality: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042B9K2C/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I am pretty sure it can be. I bought two replacement needles that are to be used with this unit. I haven't tried it yet. There are instructions included as to how to replace a needle.

This thread is for sewing machine or hand sewing. It is not for embroidery. I have this and it works good for me.

It depends on what you are sewing. I'm using just regular heavy duty thread and it works great. It takes a while to get the hang of the machine but it works great. If you have a real heavy duty application, you're going to need a real heavy duty thread. The thread that came with it was 1/16" or thereabouts. It's much heavier than you need for most applications.

I'm sure you can use them for your serger. There is only one spool of each color and most servers required 3-4 spools. Also they are smaller than the cones traditionally used for a serger. I use them on my regular sewing machine.

Yes it can, it is very useful. I have enjoyed all of the sewing machine feet I purchased from Amazon, the price is at least a third of that at the seeing machine retail stores.

The cotton spools are 2500 yards per spool. This thread will work with the different size universal needles. The sewing machine needle size will depend on the type of fabric being used.

I would suggest maybe getting a strong pair of reading glasses or a magnifying glass to help you thread your needle. As for thread you can use any thread. I will admit the shorter spools work better but the regular work just fine.
