Wednesday Giveaway!

It is exceedingly rare to find a whole new needle but Colonial’s Tapestry Petites fit the bill! We carry both the #24 and the #26 sizes. The winner of the shorter #26 size has an unusual username: Simply stitching.

These needles are short, with big eyes, and a sharp-enough point. I will use both the #24 and the #26 when hand sewing with #12 and #8 pearl cotton. I think they will be good for embroidery, big-stitch hand quilting, and big-stitch applique.

I’ll be back with another Giveaway next Wednesday. Until then you can shop for all sorts of sewing notions, books, and other fun stuff at pieceocake.com!

  1. Always on the lookout for needles that can be used with thicker thread. I would live to try them. Thanks for your weekly posts.

  4. Would love to win these! I do traditional hand quilting but have always admired big stitch. Can’t thread the heavier threads through tiny Betweens though. These needles might be just what I’m looking for!

  5. These tapestry needles look perfect for wool embroidery. Thank you Becky for always sending a truly newsy newsletter. With my hand in a cast for 5+ weeks I’m taking advantage of rewatching many of your tutorial videos! Cheers-Sam
