Description
Achieve professional, crisp topstitching with the Janome Top Stitch Needle Set. These needles are uniquely designed with an extra-long eye (nearly double the length of a standard needle) and a deeper thread groove. This allows thicker topstitching threads to flow effortlessly, preventing the "shredding" that usually happens when using heavy decorative thread in a standard needle.
Perfect for decorative topstitching on denim, tailored jackets, and home décor projects.
