Simes Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 I have very little experience in using a Singer Patching machine. I wondered what size needles you use and matching thread sizes. In particular, what would needles and thread would you use for replacing Riding boot zips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petercoulson Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 The choices are a little limited with thread sizes but needles are available from 14 to 23 i believe. Most popular are 19 or thereabouts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
