As long as you don't mind how the back of the quilt looks, you can use them for quilting and get some fun results...can even quilt with some of your decorative stitches...it is even possible to do free motion work...but be careful not to pull on the quilt as you can break needles if you do...and the twin needles aren't cheap. Try playing with one and see what you think!

Twin needles are great for sewing on narrow bias binding, like the kind used for celtic or stained glass window designs. I recently used them for a spider web quilt I made my nephew.

A friend of mine uses the 1/4 inch twin needles to outline quilting. She only threads the outside one and uses the inside one to follow the seam down. I haven't tried it yet.

I use the twin needles to hem T-shirts when I shorten them Looks just like the oiginal hem

That sounds like a good idea, L'ii try it.

I use mine for top stitching when sewing.

Great idea. I may have to give this a try. Thanks.

I use the twin needles, and they are not only for decorational purposes. They can also be used for securing the fabrics, rather than zig zagging, or serging the edges.

that is a good idea, I hope I remember it..
