Fabric and Needle Chart

• For general sewing, use red needle.

• Fine threads and needles should be used for sewing

fine fabrics.

• In general, use the same thread for both needle and

bobbin.

• Use a blue tip needle for sewing fine fabrics, stretch

fabrics, tricot and buttonholes to prevent skipped
stitches.

• Use a purple tip needle for sewing knits, free quilting

and across the hem to prevent skipped stitches.

• Use a stabilizer or interface to stretch or fine fabrics

to prevent seam puckering.

• Always test the thread and needle size on a small

piece of the same fabric you will use for actual
sewing.

For embroidery:

• In general, use a blue tip needle.

• Use a red tip needle or purple tip needle for thicker

fabrics.

• Use a purple tip needle for dense stitch embroidery

and Quilting designs.

• Janome bobbin thread for embroidery is

recommended for bobbin.

NOTE:
1 x twin needle, 2 x blue tip needle (#11/75), 1 x red tip
needle (#14/90) and 1 x purple tip needle (#14/90) are
included in the needle case (Part No. 859856005).
