Euro-Notions 1712Jean & Denim Machine Needles-Size 16/100 5/Pkg

These worked great for jean hems and repairs. Needed for use on heavier fabric. Sometimes heard to find in stores.

Schmetz needles. What can I say? Works great

I use this product to hem the pants of my eight years old son. We currently leave in Japan and its really hard to find the right size of clothing for him.

Strong and effective needles. Ive never had a problem with Schmetz, so Im not surprised.

Bought these to bind a quilt with a very heavy textile because regular needles kept snapping off. These are tough little needles but still broke 2 and had to have neighbor finish project on her industrial machine (not because of poor product, rather too heavy of a project).

I certainly liked the denim sewing machine needles. I have been sewing for years and never knew they existed. I would recommend these needles for any of your denim sewing. I made a patchwork quilt out of jeans and it turned out fabulous.

Good

I bought these to use when altering/upcycling some old denim jeans and jackets. They worked find when it was just the denim. But as I tried to sew over seams, two broke, back to back. I was disappointed in that, as I thought by buying jean needles theyd be a bit stronger.

Im using these to sew through masks with bias binding. I bent quite a few thinner needles. These work ok but still tend to bend a bit when I hit a thick spot. Ive made dozens of masks and have bent 3 of these so far. I paid $4.25 for them, now they are much more expensive without free shipping. I bought a bunch at other suppliers for $4.50.

Good Buy, they are very sturdy and hold up on thick fabric.
