Foxglove Cottage Straw Needles

Needles - Foxglove Cottage Straw Needles Jeana's favorite needle makes needle-turn applique easy and smooth. They are also useful for basting, hand piecing and quilting. The narrow shank of this fine needle glides easily through several fabric layers without hesitation.

These needles are available in sizes 8 (largest), 9, 10, 11 (smallest), and are packaged in clear plastic cylinders, with 16 needles per container.

Size 11 - This needle is extra fine and flexible. It is prefered for intricate hand applique.

Size 10 - This needle is slightly thicker than the Size 11 and is ideal for most hand applique.

Size 9 - This needle is a little longer and stronger than the Size 10. It is excellent for basting and hand piecing.

Size 8 - The Size 8 is thicker, for added strength, but still allows for easy stitching through multiple quilt layers. You may find, as Jeana did, that tiny quilting stitches are easily possible with the Size 8.
