Installing a Longarm Needle

Needles seem like a simple necessity for your machine, but would you believe lots of us put them in backwards, at least once! The only downside to this is that you won’t have a good stitch. You’ll know right away if something is wrong, but don’t fret, it can all be made right just by inserting the needle with the GROOVE to the front, scarf to the back.

I made a quick video to show you how to insert the needle, plus my reasons for using a ballpoint needle. If you follow me, you know how much I LOVE Schmetz needles. You can find them for sale in my online shop link below.
