Dressmaker's Needle Assortment

Dressmaker's Needle Assortment refers to a collection of different types and sizes of needles specifically designed for dressmaking or sewing garments. These needles are commonly used by professional dressmakers, tailors, and sewing enthusiasts.

The assortment typically includes a variety of needle types, such as:

1. Sharps Needles: These are general-purpose needles with a sharp point and a medium length. They are suitable for various sewing tasks, including basting, hemming, and attaching buttons.

2. Ballpoint Needles: These needles have a rounded tip instead of a sharp point. They are specifically designed for sewing on knit fabrics, as they help prevent the needle from damaging or snagging the fabric.

3. Embroidery Needles: These needles have a larger eye and a sharp point. They are used for decorative stitching and embroidery work, allowing for the easy passage of embroidery threads.

4. Twin Needles: These needles are used for creating parallel rows of stitching, such as for hems or decorative topstitching. They have two needles attached to a single shank, allowing for simultaneous stitching of two parallel lines.

5. Leather Needles: These needles have a sharp, triangular point and are designed for sewing leather, suede, or other heavy fabrics. They have a strong and durable construction to withstand the rigors of sewing through thick materials.

6. Quilting Needles: These needles have a short length and a sharp point. They are specifically designed for quilting projects, allowing for precise stitching through multiple layers of fabric and batting.

Dressmaker's Needle Assortments usually come in a compact case or packaging, making it convenient to store and organize the different needle types. They are commonly found in the Notions And Apparel Findings supply class, which is part of the Textiles, Leather, Furs, Apparel And Shoe Findings, Tents And Flags supply group.
