When I first tried using the rocking, a few stitches at a time hand quilting method I saw online, I broke 4 needles before I even got 3 stitches in the quilt!

I quit and sewed my old familiar comfortable way, one stitch at a time. The needles did bend, but didn't break.

The needles are so small! When I tried using just a plain old needle for sewing on a button, it was like trying to sew with a bone after using those tiny thin needles. LOL!
