Q1: What needle should I use with Safari Elephant Quilting Pattern?
Pro Tip: A standard 75/11 or 80/12 universal embroidery needle works best for this design to ensure clean stitches through your fabric.

Quick Note: For stable fabrics like quilting cotton, a medium-weight cut-away or tear-away stabilizer provides the best support for the pattern.

We recommend keeping your adjustments within 10% of the original size, as scaling beyond that can ruin the stitch quality of this design.

Yes, dear! Wash your project in cold water with mild detergent, and always iron from the reverse side using a pressing cloth to protect the thread.
