Sue Daley Designs Milliners and Chenille needles are a joy to use, combining beauty and practicality.
Why Choose Milliners Needles?
Long & Fine Design: Milliners needles are slender and extended, making them easy to handle.
Gold Eye: Each needle features a long, gold-plated eye, simplifying threading.
Ergonomic Benefits: Ideal for those with arthritis, carpal tunnel, or long fingernails. Their length reduces the need for tight gripping, minimising hand discomfort.
Versatile Applications: Perfect for embroidery, cross-stitch, English Paper Piecing (EPP), and appliqué.
(Note: The higher the Milliners size number, the finer the needle.)
