Key features of the Topstitch Needle:

• The Topstitch Needle has a particularly long needle eye: It is 2 mm long in all needle sizes. This means that even 2 or 3 threads can glide effortlessly through the eye and are handled gently without tearing. Several threads in one color can be used to highlight a quilted seam, for example, while a decorative effect can be achieved with different colored threads.

• The Topstitch Needle enables you to use decorative techniques with thicker threads, e.g. jeans threads or effect threads.

• Thanks to the slightly rounded point, the Topstitch Needle can easily be used with a wide range of fabrics.

• Long service life due to high-quality chrome plating

• Ideal for decorative stitches or freehand embroidery (needle painting) with household sewing machines

• Can also be used for embroidery with embroidery machines

Tip: Many quilters like to use the Topstitch Needle for quilting and free motion quilting. Here, using a straight needle plate will help you to achieve very straight seams and even stitches.
