Bohin Appliqué Needles Long 00625 – Size 12, 15 pcs
A pack of 15 long Bohin appliqué needles in size 12 — the finest size in the appliqué range. Long appliqué needles suit stitchers who prefer to turn fabric edges with the needle as they go, or who like to load several stitches at once before pulling through. The fine shaft and sharp tip make stitches nearly invisible on the appliqué edge.
Long needles are a matter of personal preference — if you find short needles feel cramped in your hand, the extra length makes a noticeable difference in comfort. Bohin also makes this size in a short version (ref 00228).

FAQ:
Short or long appliqué needle — which should I choose? Both work for the same technique. Short needles give more control for tight stitches; long needles are preferred by stitchers who turn fabric edges with the needle tip or have larger hands. It comes down to comfort and habit.
Can I use these for bead embroidery? Size 12 is very fine and can work for attaching accent beads to embroidery on fabric — it passes through most seed beads (size 11/0 and larger). For intensive beadwork or very small beads, a dedicated beading needle is recommended.
