Sewing


Are sewing machine needles universal?
Most home sewing machine needles will fit all home sewing machines except Singer Sewing Machine Needles.  Singer Sewing Machine Needles have an extra bit at the top of the shaft, they should only be used on Singer Sewing Machines.  Singer Sewing Machine Needles will damage other brands of sewing machines.
