Thats what the lady in my sewing group uses them for. Pretty clever huh I think.

I am thinking Applique so glad you posted this. I have never heard of them before.

I have these needles although I have not used them. I remember I bought them through a catalog- thinking it was Clothild's. This was a few years ago.

I hurt myself enough with a regular needle. I would really do some damage with a double pointed one, lol!!!

You could also order them from http://www.colonialneedle.com/ That's where I got mine. They have all kinds of needles!

"Twin Pointed Needles

Twin pointed needles have points on both ends with an eye in the middle. This allows stitching with one hand on each side of a hoop-mounted canvas or quilt. No needle turning means less wrist strain, less thread twisting, less dropping the needle between stitches and faster stitching."
