I go thru a lot of machine needles and wanted to ask where you all buy your needles from. Do you just go to Joann's or is there a place that is reputable online that would be cheaper. Thanks for you advise.......I know there has got to be a good source other than Walmart or joann's.

Jo Anns has 1/2 price notions every so often. I stock up when I see them.

I buy all of my needles on eBay. They are wonderful quality needles and so much cheaper than in the store. The shops online don't have the overhead that regular shops do. So they can really cut their costs. Some even have free shipping.

I have bought my machine needles off ebay. they are the schmetz needles and are just as good quality as what I have gotten at Joann's. Got a 100 in a pkg for 13.99 with shipping.

There is a group on Yahoo that does only needles. It's called needlecoop. Next order will be in the fall.

i just watch for sales-where ever-
on line--Clotildes, Connecting Threads and Nancy's Notions-
locally the lqs- hobby lobby (i'm one of those who avoids joannes...just quake at the thought of having to enter their doors)
