Titanium needles
 
I am interested in purchasing Organ (Superior) titanium topstitch needles in quantity online at a good price. I know there are places to do so but would appreciate hearing from anyone who has done so.
Thanks.

I buy the needles from Superior. Great customer service and good sale prices too. I think shipping is still $3 or it was the last time I ordered. The titanium needles last so much longer then the regular needles they pay for themselves.The link for allbrands seems to be needle sizes for heavy weight thread. I have no idea what size 12 14 and 16 is, compared to the needles sizes I know. Stick with Superior and get exactly what you want with no guess work.

12 is 80 14 is 90 and 16 is 100 in needle size

Discount embroidery has the Organ needles at a really good price.

Thanks for the needle size info. I was interested but too lazy to Google. I'll never remember it though. LOL

I just bought my first 100 from Discount Embroidery. Very reasonable and they were here before I could think about it. I am very pleased with them.

I have bought my Organ brand Titanium needs from Bailey who makes the home quilting machines. I bought 100 of them and think they will last me these rest of my life. I use them for quilting and I do not change needles with every quilt. I probably do 10 or 12 quilts with one needle. Unless I have some indication that I need to change the needle, I keep on quilting with the same one, over and over again.

I use the other needles for my piecing - the kind that I just happen to have stock-piled a few years ago.
I don't seem to have issues with needles or thread, so I just keep stitching merrily along.

You can do a search on which places sell them, then get them wherever you get the best buy.

If you want them for about 6 cents a piece you need to join Yahoo!s Needlecoop... They have a buy that is going to end the end of March. I pay with PayPal and with the fees and shipping it comes to a little less than 66 bucks. I have bought through them twice and have not had a problems. Tell them Coyote suggested you join if there is a space for it when you fill out the form. I love mine and they last and last....
