Special features of the Microtex needle

• The slim, acute point allows for accurate stitches in very fine or tightly woven materials.
• The needle produces particularly straight stitches when topstitching edges, such as collars or plackets.

• Tip: When quilting typically very tightly woven batik fabrics, the Microtex needle produces particularly precise seams.
• Acute points are more delicate than rounded points or ball points: The needle should therefore be checked more frequently for damage and replaced in good time.
