Piecemakers Embroidery Needles – Size 8
The go-to needle for Big Stitch Quilting!
Piecemakers Embroidery Needles are pointed embroidery needles: long, slim needles with a large eye, designed for smooth stitching with thicker threads. They are ideal for decorative embroidery stitches through fabric (not for cross stitch on evenweave) and are especially popular for Big Stitch Quilting.
Big Stitch Quilting is all about deliberately larger, visible stitches that add character and texture to a quilt. Thanks to the generous eye and comfortable length, these needles easily accommodate thicker threads such as Aurifil 12 wt or Wonderfil 8 wt, without fraying or resistance.
These needles are also excellent for hand piecing, when a slightly longer needle and larger eye are preferred, making them a versatile choice for many hand sewing techniques.
