I have just gotten a wedding quilt in to quilt. The entire quilt is made of satin. Because of the material I am concerned about using a size 16 needle on this material. I have looked high and low trying to find a size 14 needle and have had no success. I went to the Quilt Expo on Friday and spoke to the HQ experts and they thought I was on the right track trying to find the finer needle for this project and they also suggested I talk to Bob from Superior Thread. Luckily Bob was in attendance and he advised I use the Bottom Line thread for the top and So Fine for the bobbin thread. I have purchased the thread now I need to find the size 14 needle that will work on the HQ Sixteen. Unfortunately I'm under a time crunch. Help!

I've bought several needles from them and have been very pleased.
