John James Assorted Tapestry 18/24

The blunt round point enables the needle to pass and slip between fabrics and yarns without splitting or tearing the fibres. Use them with wool, embroidery soft cotton and stranded cotton on canvas

Not sure which size to use? The general rule: The bigger the number the finer and shorter the needle. Use Sharps size 2, 3 and 4 for general sewing on medium to heavy fabrics. These sizes have a larger eye and are easier to thread. Sharps in size 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are the most popular sharp needles and are commonly used for general sewing on light to medium fabric.

Authorities in our business will tell in no uncertain terms that Lorem Ipsum is that huge, huge no no to forswear forever. Not so fast, I'd say, there are some redeeming factors in favor of greeking text, as its use is merely the symptom of a worse problem to take into consideration.

Product Care

Anyway, you still use Lorem Ipsum and rightly so, as it will always have a place in the web workers toolbox, as things happen, not always the way you like it, not always in the preferred order.

John James Assorted Tapestry 18/24.

  • Tapestry sewing needles are sometimes referred to as Cross Stitch needles.  They have a large eye and a blunt round point and are especially adapted for the use in needlepoint, petit point, countered cross stitch and plastic canvas work.
  • The larger sizes, such as 13 and 14, can also be used for stitching knitted projects together or crochet work and are sometimes referred to as “sewing up” needles.  Because of the blunt point, these larger sizes are ideal for children to use when stitching on Binca or 6hpi Aida.
  • It is the finer needles such as size 22, 24, 26 and 28 that are commonly used for cross stitch. The blunt round point enables the needle to pass and slip between fabrics and yarns without splitting or tearing the fibres. Use them with wool, embroidery soft cotton and stranded cotton on Single Point Canvas, Double Point Canvas, Aida and open mesh fabric.

Quilting is a modern form of art

Quilting is evolving in sew many new and exciting directions. It has become more about creativity, design, and innovation rather than focusing on pure technique and traditional piecing. Projects have taken on new dimensions and are approached very differently. Modern sewing and quilting machines, and new quilting methods like ruler-work and computerized-quilting have transformed the world of quilting. Types of Quilting Fabrics and notions have also improved and expanded. One of the fastest growing crafts world-wide, patchwork and quilting appeals to a much wider audience of sewers of all ages. Quilties globally are building new friendships and communities, physically and virtually. We are proud to be part of this impetus.
