Members Elmore Posted May 12, 2020 Members Report Posted May 12, 2020 Hi all, I have a new to me 1976 Pfaff 1222e that I picked up for fabric and canvas work. This may be a longshot, but I'm hoping someone out there is familiar with this machine. Should it sew #69 thread with a size 16/18 needle? When I tried sewing #69 thread, the stitches looked poor in comparison to stitches in a lighter weight thread. If it should sew #69 thread, I'll keep playing with the tension settings and see if I can't figure out the magic recipe. The manual I found does show heavy-linen and denim paired with thread size 40 and needle size 90-100. Burlap is 40/110. Toldeo sewing chart converts that to #69 thread. Thanks! Quote
