Thank you for your very informative posts, I am having fun learning these stitches again! Do you have a particular brand of needle that you prefer?
@MacAvoySistersSaySew
@MacAvoySistersSaySew 3 ай бұрын
I'm glad you like our videos! My favorite brand of needles is Tulip. They are made in Japan. Their milliners needles are nice and straight, with beautifully bored out eyes that do not bulge out at all. This makes them perfect for knotted stitches. Tulip needles are pricey, though. I also like Hemmings needles- very good quality for less money. Both Tulip and Hemmings milliners needles are available in individual sizes. Another great needle is Bohin, made in France. Their milliners needles only come in variety packs, but their other needles come in individual sizes. I also like John James for chenille needles, Jeana Kimball Foxglove Cottage #9 straw (milliners) for cotton applique, and Sue Spargo brand are my favorite tapestry needles. As you can probably tell, I love sewing needles!
