When I was stitching the latest Mimi block I decided to try these needles I have been hearing so much about. They are super wonderful for sewing through really dense fabrics like hand dyes and batiks. I bought them at my local quilt shop but and I am pretty sure you can ask for them at yours too. If you don’t have a local quilt shop I’m pretty sure they are available online.
Thanks Erin always looking for `the`needle for applique projects.
Love your New BOM and what a great way to start celebrating 2013 with one of our fabulous designs

I love these too - sadly they seem to go missing just as often as the cheaper ones - despite me being super careful.

I must be the only one who doesn't like these needles. For me, either the black plating would flake off causing a rough spot on the needle or the needle would break easily. I won't buy them again. Hope your experience with them is better.

I don't feel any difference with these needles.
