Special features of the Microtex needle

• The slim, sharp point enables accurate stitches in very fine or tightly woven materials.
• The needle can be used to achieve particularly straight stitches when topstitching edges, such as on collars or button plackets.

• Tip: When quilting typically very tightly woven batik fabrics, the Microtex needle produces particularly exact seams.
• Sharp 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.
