A great video, Kimberly. Thank you. I have quilted, cross stitched, and embroidered for years and have discovered a lot of great tips watching your videos. Until today, i didn't know the difference between tapestry and embroidery needles. It's never too late for an old dog to to learn new tricks!
Fabulous video. Thank you, Kimberly and FQS, for all you do for us. ❤🥰🧵🪡
I just rewatched this video. So informative and helpful. Best tip ever - turn the needle around to the other side if you can't get it threaded! I bought some of the Whitecroft needles and half the time I couldn't get it threaded. Then I remembered your tip and now I can always get them threaded.
Oh my you missed the Cosmo needles. I love them. Purchase many packs from FQS because I live them. Thanks for the info.
Thank you FQS and Kimberly for giving us a great tutorial on the brands of needles…still like Pat Carson needles…best wishes and happy stitching ❤❤
Wow! I loved this tutorial about needles. I can't wait until the next class. Very interesting. ❤
Thank you for a great stitchy talk on needles. When I got back into cross stitch a year or so ago I bought some Bohin needles from you and I love them.
Thank you Kimberly, I love twitchy talk. I learn something new every episode.
Would love to see you do a talk about quilt, appliqué, and embroidery needles. Enjoyed this information on tapestry needles.
After watching this I realize. I needed to throw some needles away. I have a tendency to just use the same needle. My thread is getting tangled I am thinking it is because I need a new needle. Thanks for the information. Have a great day. Super excited for the next stitchy talk.
Very interesting and Interesting and I use Bohin 24.
Luckily I have a good size Pat Carson stash but good info for when I need to branch out. First time hearing about turning the needle for stubborn floss that won't go through and I have been stitching since the 80's.Thanks!
Love to see what you have stitched, FFO’s and new to FQS. I love the vibrant colors and the cooler weather although like TX it doesn’t cool down until Mid-Oct or Nov. in Arkansas.
Thank you! ❤
These stitchy talks have all been so informative- thank you! I’ve finally gotten a friend interested in stitching and I’m sending her the videos about fabric, floss and needles. Then I’ll have her watch the July ep! Great stuff!
Thanks for this video. I screenshot the last comparison so I can zoom in! ⚘️
Very informative as usual!! Thank you!!!
Thank you!
Loved this. Thanks!
Great video ! Thanks for the info !!
Thanking you for sharing your knowledge 😊
Thank you for doing these stitchy talks, very informative
Excellent info Kimberly- thank you.
Thank you, Kimberly. Valuable information .
Thankyou for this. Tutorial. I never knew how to pick my needles
Thank you. Very informative. Good luck with your college trips.
Great information.
Fabulous information Kimberly! Thank you.
Thank you so much! I get so confused with needles! This really helped!❤
Thank you 😊
This was fabulous! I do love the Bohin 26/28… but excited to try out the EdMar needles. Thank you!
Thank you for an informative viedo. I am going to look at Tulip and several of the others. Thanks again very helpful!
Interesting floss tube. I've been stitching for decades. Recently started using Mary Arden, but the top where you thread is gold, the ones I bought. I noticed the needle itself is flat. Fascinating to me. I'm enjoying using it. There are a few you've shown I've not tried & will in the future. Love the needle minders. Their such fun. Happy Stitching!
Thanks for reviewing all the different brands! I’m still enjoying my Pat Carson stash but have a few others I’d like to try. You’ve also convinced me awhile back to try 26…my stitching looks so much neater! Thanks :)
I have tried the whitecroft needles and love them. I had not heard of the Ed Mar needles but will get some to try when they come back in.
Thanks for the great information Kimberly! I see a couple of brands to try out next. I am still searching for a Pat Carson replacement.
It's like I never heard this information before. Thanks Kimberly. Have been having a lot of problems threading 2 Strands of Classic Color Works into a Size 26 Embroidery Needles. Now I find that I should use Tapestry Needles. I hope these work. I love My John James.
Can
Very Very nice 🙌👍
I watched this and found it so informative. Thank you. I stitch on 14 count Aida, and what a difference using a proper sized needle, and a better needle. I bought a Bohin 24 and 26. They slide like butter and make the cross stitching so much easier. I had cheaper ones and l will never use them again.
Thanks Kimbelry - very informative - but I have found that stainless steel or the Pony Brand are best for sensitive skin - they are not nickle plated which is better!! :-)
I had the Loran threader and didn't know how to work it 😂. Ty for the visual. If a business card fit in the case just write needle info on it 😊
I actually tried and liked a brand by the company tha makes Cosmo thread. I believe it was Leiden?
I just got pony needles. They are pretty good. They have different color eyes.
I just found the Colonial size 28 gold plated tapestry Petit needles at a LNS. They are my new favorite. Made in the UK. Extremely smooth and I haven’t had the fiber shredding I have experienced in other brands. Please explore this brand.

Great
Thank you. I got the Clover needle threader and can’t get it through the eye of a Piecemaker.
What color and brand is your nail polish? I love it!
Hello Rhonda! Kimberly is wearing OPI's Cajun Shrimp.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing this info. Is there a brand of needle that has the most durable finish? My fingers seem to eat through the finish of needles very quickly. For example, I get maybe 2 hours of stitching from a Bohin. A bit longer from Piecemakers. Ed-Mar and Mary Arden's finish lasts the longest, but I still go through multiple needles while doing a small project (like a SWTH tiered tray tidbit). Gold plated don't last any longer than nickel for me. I broke Sullivans (only needles I've ever broke...). I stitch on higher counts and exclusively use a size 28 or size 10 blunt beading needle. Any suggestions for small durable finish tapestry needles are welcome.
Hello Misty! We recommend EdMar and Mary Arden needles ▸EdMar: bit.ly/3OJDI5J
▸Mary Arden: bit.ly/3WH5ilU
If you made your needle minders out of polymer they would be much lighter. 😊
Not a needle question but---what is the pattern name over your right shoulder with the Bee. So cute.......
Hello Kathy! That is the Bloom Where You're Planted Cross Stitch Pattern: www.fatquartershop.com/bloom-where-youre-planted-cross-stitch-pattern-its-sew-emma
I’d love to know if anyone has used the John James double pointed needle. It takes a bit to get used to but my white stitches are so much nicer when I use it. It is a slow slog so I only use on large white sections. Being a Christmas theme stitcher I have lots of white. Kimberly?
Hello Helen! Kimberly has not used the John James Double Pointed needles.
Do any of the needles you carry come in a petite length besides John James?
Hello Sherry! No, we do not offer petite length needles.
Does Lori Holt have a needle that works for Cross stitch?
Hello Suzanne! Yes, you can use her Nifty Needles www.fatquartershop.com/tapestry-nifty-needles-tube
Thank you!
