Nancy's first goal in writing this book was to write a useful, easy to read, easy to carry reference guide to today's needles and threads. The book has an emphasis on Machine Quilting for today's quilters.

Long arm machines, short arm machines and domestic sewing machines are all being pushed past what they were originally designed to do. How can we reduce the frustration of thread breaks, neelde holes, poor tension, and shattered nerves in our pursuit of fiber arts? Learn how to pick the best combination of needles and thread to get your desired results.
