Use these needles for hemstitching and for creating French Hand Sewn garments by machine. Side wings create a hole in loosely woven fabric that resembles entredeux, Double wing has one wing needle and one universal needle. The single wing needle is sold in size 100 and 120.

Hemstitching is found on commercial pillow cases. It is the little decoration found at the hem.
