I prefer Roxanne's needles. You get about 60 needles in one little tube.

I haven't tried Roxanne's so I will. But I like Hemming, James, and mostly Piecemaker's. I like the smallest I can work with - 10 or 12.

I use Jeanne Kimballs Foxglove Cottage in a size 12 .. and get them at her site on line. I got the first ones at the LQS, but they closed, so I found her site. They are tiny and wonderful.. I use them for all of my hand stitching.

Thimble Lady's size medium. I use them for piecing, too.
