Clover Black Gold Needles |
A well designed Needle makes all the difference
When I first saw these needles, I thought "What's the point in having a coated needle? Surely there are ways to minimize the chance of a rusting."
Then I set aside my quilting "betweens," and tried them. It felt as if the needle didn't slide through the fabric as smoothly, but it wasn't a problem. So I continued adding a different color silk to each needle until all were in my linen needle book.
I live in a warm and humid coastal area and have found that cotton or wool needle books will hold the moisture and cause the needles to rust, while linen, though absorbent, dries quickly.
