I use a wing needle in my Janome machines & have seen the same one used in Bernina. I think it is pretty well standard size. The design itself is digitized differently, mostly heirloom style. Very pretty on linens.

No you can't. I have a Janome MC300E and the hole in the plate for the needle is not wide enough. You will have to have a look at the needle, which has "wings" on each side, and see if it will go into the opening of the plate.

They are so pretty.. I believe you can also run these designs just using a standard needle with just a little less effect.
My brother innovis 700 will take the wing needle
but my brother PR600 will not :-)

I'd check the throat plate and embroidery foot. If you aren't sure, ask the dealer you purchased your machine from or ask on the manufacturer's website.

I agree with anne55. You need to have a throat plate and foot that allows for the wider needle. If you don't currently one for your machine, then I would check with the dealer to make sure your machine allows for the needle and/or if they can order you a different throat plate and foot. Better safe than sorry.

Thanks for all the information, I will check with my dealer just to be safe.
