Why Do Quilters Love Topstitch Needles?
Titanium-coated topstitch needles are an excellent choice for quilters and sewists who want fewer thread breaks and value long-lasting products (titanium-coated needles last up to 8 times longer than standard needles).They are specially designed to provide an excellent stitching experience, thanks to the unique benefits of an extremely thin coating of titanium nitride and thread-protective properties of the needle style.
