Over the years I have tried nearly every needle out there while doing different projects!

I always come back to John James as a brand because while they are a bit pricier, they also last longer.

My favorite has become John James embroidery type size 12.

What do you all like?

The only kind I dont like are DMC. HA Kidd makes some nice needles - especially gold ones and cost just over a $1 for a 4 pack

Yes, I usually bend DMC needles within a week! lol I have never understood the appeal of the gold ones. They are pretty certainly, but does the gold do anything else?  Details Reply Post time 2019-9-4 11:24

the gold plating usually makes them smoother and glide nicer through the fabric  Post time 2019-9-5 08:12
