Anita's Applique Needles
I like the extra length of these Straw or Milliner needles and feel that they give me a little more
needle to work with and better control for my needle-turn appliqué. The #11 is slender and will
allow you to take very small stitches. The eye on the #11 is small, but will accept a needle
threader. The #10 is slightly heavier and has an eye which is easy to thread. I personally like the
feel of the #10 and find that I can still make very fine stitches with this size. Both of these needles
are also good choices for hand piecing if you are so inclined. $2.50 20 per pkg.

Anita's Quilting Betweens
# 11 Betweens for Quilting
This quilting needle is a hybrid of the #10 and the #12
betweens. For most of my quilting life, I have used a #12 which
is very short and gives me the tiniest stitch possible. But for
many of my students, the eye is too small, or they feel that they
bend and break them too often. The #11 is the answer!
This needle has the body and strength of a #10 and an eye that
is easy to thread, but it is as short as the #12, which means that
you can still make tiny stitches. I use them everyday and almost
everyone who has tried them, loves them. $2.50 15 per pkg.
