NEEDLE CHANGE

Back to quilting on the Birdbox today.  I've got Aurifil 50wt thread top and bottom.  The top thread has been breaking sometimes, especially when going right to left.  I tried a few passes before I gave in and changed the needle.  I set the eye at 5:30.  It helped a little but I was still fixing thread breaks right up to the end.

I almost made it through the whole quilt on one bobbin, probably would have without all of those thread breaks.  But, I had to wind a partial bobbin with the bright yellow for the backing to finish up.

But, it's done!
