Hi
I am in need of sewing needles for hand sewing bindings. I was wondering what brand of needles everyone uses.
Thanks a bunch

I use quilting betweens No 10. Mary Arden (English)

I use betweens, a size 10 or 12. And I use a double thread, to make them stronger, with a blind stitch.

My Mom found a bunch of packages of Sewing Susan needles. There are all sizes in each pack. I finish a quilt and don't feel guilty to throw the needle away.

When I finish a binding; my needle is soooo bent:{
Aren't there non bendable needles out there??

I buy size 10 Straw needles. Love them. They are very long and thin so easy to sew with and yes I use them to put bindings on. I use #10 betweens to hand quilt. marge

I love the straw needles for working on such things as binding. I feel that there thinness (sp) helps in penetrating the cloth so much easier.

I like to use short applique needle............... Isn't that funny my needles are bent too........
