    Default Best Binding Needles

    I'm looking for a good binding needle. The hand-sewing binding needles I had in my notions just didn't do the job. I need one with a sharp point and a good glide. Your recommendations are appreciated.


    Thank you.

    I started using Primitive Gatherings binding needles a couple years ago and love them. They are the only needles I use for bindings now.

    I also vote for the Primitive Gathering binding needles.

    I use a straw needle for binding as it's sharp and long. I use straw needles for applique for the same reason.
