We recommend an 80/12 usually (even if it is not an embroidery needle), depending on what your stitching through. Some machines will use a 75/11 embroidery needle successfully, but not all. An 80/12 Topstitch needle is my favorite because it has a longer eye. Whenever you notice an fraying of thread in the needle area, upsize your needle.
