Key features of the Microtex Needle:
- The slim acute point allows for accurate stitching in very fine or densely woven materials.
- The needle can be used to top stitch edges, for example for creating particularly straight stitches on collars or button tape.
- Tip: When quilting batik fabrics that are typically very densely woven, the Microtex Needle can achieve particularly precise seams.
- Acute points are more sensitive than rounded or ball points: You should therefore check the needle for damage more frequently and replace it in good time.
