The Longarm Thread, Bobbin & Needle Trifecta Bundle combines the three consumables every longarm quilter goes through most — thread, pre-wound bobbins, and needles — in one convenient bundle. Whether setting up a new longarm machine or restocking your studio essentials, this trifecta eliminates three separate orders and delivers everything needed for a production quilting session.
Product Details
- Thread: White Glide king spool (5,500 yards) — the most popular longarm thread color
- Bobbins: White Magna-Glide pre-wound bobbin jar — matched to the top thread
- Needles: Groz-Beckert #14 longarm needles — the standard needle for everyday longarm quilting
- Value: Bundle pricing offers savings versus purchasing each item separately
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why are these three items the most important longarm consumables?
- Thread and bobbins are consumed with every quilt. Needles should be changed every 8–10 hours of quilting time. Running out of any one of these three mid-project is a common frustration — keeping them stocked together prevents unnecessary downtime.
- What needle size and type is included?
- The bundle includes Groz-Beckert #14 (MR 3.0) regular sharp 134MR needles — the standard everyday longarm needle for cotton fabrics with 40wt thread. Check the specific listing if a different needle size or style is required for your work.
- Is this bundle good for a new longarm quilter just getting started?
- Yes — this is one of the most recommended starting setups. White thread and matching bobbins cover most initial projects, and having a fresh set of needles ensures you start with optimal stitch quality.
- What bobbin style is included?
- Check the specific bundle listing for the bobbin style. Magna-Glide bobbins are available in L-style and M-style — confirm your machine’s bobbin compatibility before ordering.
- How many quilts can I complete with the thread, bobbins, and needles in this bundle?
- Estimates vary widely by stitch density and quilt size, but a 5,500-yard thread spool and a full bobbin jar are typically enough for multiple queen-size quilts. The needles in the pack cover several weeks of regular production quilting.
