Key features of the Embroidery Needle: The Embroidery Needle has an extra-wide needle eye and a wide thread groove. These ensure that sewing and embroidery threads glide effortlessly through the groove and eye and are handled gently without tearing.
The Embroidery Needle enables you to use decorative techniques with thicker threads or effect threads.
The medium ball point helps to avoid damage to the embroidery thread and the embroidery base.
Suitable for embroidering with embroidery machines and also for decorative stitches or free motion embroidery (needle painting) with household sewing machines
Can be used with all conventional household embroidery and sewing machines (e.g. Bernina, Pfaff, Elna, Brother, Juki, Janome, Singer, W6, etc.).
The color marking on the needles helps you to identify your needles quickly: The top color shows the needle type and the bottom color shows the needle size. The top color marking on an Embroidery Needle is red.
Suitable fabrics/materials: For sewing and embroidery threads as well as thicker threads and effect threads
Can be used universally for decorative stitching and embroidery on a range of fabrics
Tip: It's easy to test whether a needle needs to be changed or not.
To determine whether a needle needs to be replaced or not, move your finger over the needle point from all sides. (Caution: take care not to pierce the skin).
Can you feel any irregularities? If yes, then the needle is no longer intact and should be replaced.
If the needle is slightly bent, there is also a risk that it will hit the needle plate when sewing and break – we recommend changing it in this case, too.
How often should I change my needle?
We recommend that you change the needle after approx. 8 hours of sewing time.
At first glance, a sewing time of 8 hours seems very short.
So, why should you change your needle regularly?
Needles are a consumable item that is subjected to extreme stress during the sewing process.
Over time, the needle will wear out despite high-quality workmanship and special coatings, and the quality of your stitches will deteriorate.
Worn or damaged needles often lead to:
Frayed threads or thread breakage
Skipped stitches or uneven stitches
Seam puckering
Damaged textiles
Knocking noises while sewing
