According to the chart I'm one under now? I also changed vendors for my thread. I like this thread better as it has a firmer texture, but maybe that makes it just a tad thinner as well? Ths 277 from this vendor may work with a 23, the last thread didn't like it at all. I think the point has a lot to do with it also is that a round point you know it could be just the lighting on the thing and being straight on angle beautiful job on that Hags. Quote

I started out using leather point needles but found them cutting the thread on the back stitch now I use what's called a diamond point I think that's what it's called never had a cut stitch again and it's good for stitching in a grove for the straight line look.
