I have been using Piecemakers Needles for many years now. I find they don't snag the cotton in the eye of the needle. I find them smooth going through the fabric. I know a lot of people use them but if you're new, try them. I highly recommend this brand of needles.

Of course 123 has the best prices! I have had great luck with these. Love them for cross stitching. Never had one break ( like another brand I used). Would recommend.

on 07/07/2023 - One of the best needles I've ever tried
I love these, they have a nice feeling in the fingers, soft and strong. Accurate!
from United States on 06/18/2023 - Good needles
These are the best needles I've found, having tried all the other major brands. They are thicker and sturdier feeling than the others. However they still tarnish and need to be replaced very fast.
from United States on 06/01/2023 - Impressed!
I was having trouble finding good size 28 tapestry needles. These were back ordered but when I did receive them, I had just broken my last 28 needle! The eye is good size, the needle has not bent yet with constant daily use, it’s short enough to get the very end of my thread through several stitches on the back, the eye has not broken, the point is fine and sharp enough to get through but still blunt so as not to catch anywhere, the price is right. This is on full coverage cross stitch, one strand of floss, on 27 count Linda over one thread. I bought 18 needles but if they continue working this well, I’ll just put the two extra packs away. These are sturdy little needles.

from United States on 08/24/2022 - New favorite
I recently tried the Piecemaker needles and I love them. They are sharper than some other brands which I like. They are also easier to thread which is sometimes a problem for me. I will definitely be ordering more of these. Highly recommend them.
from United States on 08/23/2022 - My favorite needles!
My favorite needles. A little shorter than some which I like as I stitch in hand. No bending or eye distortion. Holds up much longer than most.

Mis agujas favoritas ya que no se doblan a pesar de ser tan delgadas. Con el tiempo y después de mucho uso se llegan a oxidar pero es porque a mi me sudan las manos jeje.

Son muy delgadas pero resistentes no se doblan aún usando presión en mantenla con el método de costura. Las pedí para trabajar counts pequeños de 32ct al 40ct. Tardaron más de un mes en llegar.

Love these needles for cross stitch!
from United States on 05/12/2021 - The best needles as far as I’m concerned.
Threading is simple cause the thread glides in every time. I never end up with breaking or splitting threads because of the smoothness of the eye of the needle. Great product I don’t use any other needles and I Stitch every day. Mickey
from United States on 03/12/2021 - Love these needles!
A Smooth eye and nice guide through fabric make these my favorite needles by far!
from United States on 02/27/2021 - Peacemaker 28 needles
Trying out new needles. These are great. Not to long. Not to short. Smooth and comfortable to use. Love the size of the eye.

Ordered the wrong size. Will use them at a later date.
from United States on 02/02/2021 - Didn’t care for!
Just ordered Piecemakers and do not care for them...they bend way too easy!

Needed to find needles that can be used for beading where I can thread the eye and have the bead fit past the eye. These seem to work pretty good

First time I use size 28 needles, they are great! Piecemakers is my favourite brand of needles. Highly recommended because they are also affordable, great quality, all sizes!
from United States on 02/23/2020 - Needles are great, but..
There were only 5 in my pack????
from United States on 12/15/2019 - Love the 28 needles! Great service as usual. Thanks!
from United States on 10/04/2019 - Best needles
These are by far my favorite needles for cross stitch. I generally use 36 count linnen and find these needles glide smoothly and don't bend like some.

from United States on 08/08/2019 - old favorites for me.
I'm starting a mini HEAD soon and saw a suggestion to have as many needles prepped as possible. ordered seven packages.
from United States on 04/01/2019 - Piecemakers Needles
These needles are my forever favorites. Threading is smooth they never loose their finish and the eyes never break. I have been using them for about 20 years. Good quality. 123 Stitch is my favorite go to for any of my stitching supplies and a real person answers the phone and will go out of their way to answer any question you may have. Above and beyond. Love em! Mickey Horcher
from United States on 03/08/2019 - Piecemakers tapestry needles are great!
For decades I used DMC tapestry needles, almost always size 28. I'd buy many packages at a time and replenish my stash when I started running low, so it wasn't until a few months ago that I was shocked to discover DMC had shrunk the size of the eye on their needles to literally half of what it's always been, making them basically useless. I badly needed something else! I'd never heard of the Piecemakers brand, but the reviews led me to order several packages size 28, and I'm SO GLAD that I did. Super smooth, impressively sturdy, sensibly long eye, and honestly a pleasure to work with, they put DMC to shame. I'll keep my fingers crossed that Piecemakers doesn't change anything because I really like these needles very much just as they are.
from United States on 02/18/2019 - Top Choice for Easy Threading
I've tried a lot of needles lately thanks for your low prices, 123, including all the John James varieties, Bohin, DMC and Mary Arden. Piecemakers are by FAR the easiest to thread using the "pinch the thread between your thumb and forefinger and slide the eye onto it" method. The needle eyes are the same length as Mary Arden's, but slightly narrower, so they shouldn't be any easier to thread this way, but they are for me, especially when using 2 strands. I love how petite the Mary Arden are, and thought I might like them best, but Piecemakers are so easy to thread, they're winning me over. They're also a little bit shorter than most standard needles, so that helps.
from United States on 11/30/2018 - Durable and reliable.
My first time cross stitching on 32 count belfast linen,I used these needles 2. They didn't break, bend or ruin my linen. I tugged a few times, squished the eye, and no breaks-no fuss. They are strong and a good length. I absolutely love these needles and will order more.
from United States on 08/30/2018 - The eye is great
If you hate the new design of the eye of the needle that DMC made, THIS is an excellent replacement.
from United States on 07/05/2018 - size 28 is perfect
'love these needles, the perfect length and thickness. The needle glides through the fabric. The price is reasonable and finally discovered 28 is the best size for my fine cross stitch.
from United States on 06/25/2018
from United States on 05/06/2018 - Back ordered. 9 out of 10 who will notice a different size.
Already back ordered. I received 9 size 28 and one size 26. Not 10 size 28x
from United States on 04/11/2018 - Piecemaker tapestry needles
I have been a counted-thread cross stitcher for nearly 40 years. I "discovered" Piecemaker needles over a decade ago and never looked back. They are smoother than John James needles, with a consistent smoothness and eyes that never break. I consider them the "Cadillac" of tapestry needles and won't use any others.
from United States on 03/22/2018 - Wonderful Needles
I decided to try these 28s in my search for the perfect needle and so far I really like them. Ive been using one needle for about a month and so far no bending, breaking or shredding fibers. They are a bit longer than the John James Petites but not as long as the regular Bohin needles, if that helps anyone. Its a slim needle but feels firm and easy to work with. So far, this is my favorite needle for cross stitch.
from United States on 03/08/2018 - Best needles out there
Smooth, easy to thread, just the right sharpness.
from United States on 12/29/2017 - Needles
Love these needles.
from United States on 08/05/2017 - fabulous needles
I bought these based on the reviews from other stitchers. I am so glad that I did! The don't bend around the eye when you pull them through. The eye is relatively wide. So far, so good!
from United States on 06/29/2017 - Needles
After DMC changed the eye of their needle, I was looking for a needle with a long eye that was reasonably priced. This fills the bill.
from United States on 03/28/2017 - What a difference!
I bought some Piecemakers on the recommendation from one of my stitchy-kin in a fb group and still can't get over the difference having a quality needle makes! I'd never have guessed it or believed, so I'm glad I took a chance and tried! I may never buy another brand, and am coming back to pick up a few more sizes!
from United States on 03/21/2017 - Excellent product!!!
Definitely better than Bohin by a mile!!! Was expecting it to bend right away and a week later I'm still waiting. It hasn't bent at all and I'm rough on my needles. Will never buy any brand but Piecemakers from now on!!
from United States on 02/19/2017 - Love these needles!
These are my all time absolute favorite needles and I think I have tried almost every brand name needle out there. Also the 28s are my favorite size. These hold up well and glide through the fabric smoothly. When I ordered them this time, I ordered 15 packages if that gives you any idea how I feel about them. I do not intend to use any other brand of needles if I don't have to do so.
from United States on 08/31/2016 - Lovely smooth needles
These are such nice smooth needles! I need the size 28 for my 18 ct & smaller fabrics and these are smooth and easy to thread for me.
from United States on 08/10/2016 - dependable needles
really like the quality.
from United States on 12/24/2015 - Piecemakers Tapestry Needles Size 28
These needles are easier to thread the the DMC needles I've used in the past. They also seem to be holding up longer. I'm doing a huge nativity cross-stitch picture that has 89 different colors. I think these needles are worth the difference in price than other ones I've used.
from United States on 08/24/2015 - Piecemakers Needles
On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, I say 10.
from United States on 08/14/2015 - Best needles for hight count fabric.
I use piecemakers for many years, love them. Best choice for stitching HAED designs.
from United States on 06/16/2015 - Needles
Was excited to try these needles, was disappointed, the needle eye must of been very rough as after about 10 stitches the thread tore and frayed.
from United States on 05/31/2015 - Love them!
I'd heard about Piecemakers and wanted to try them. The size 28 ones I get in the store bend and break too often. So far I love these and use them with whatever fabric count I'm stitching on. I would recommend others to at least try these. I bought 2 packs and will buy more in the near future because I have multiple WIPs I switch around.
from United States on 04/13/2015 - Piecemakers Needles
I've heard about these so wanted to try them and bought 2 packs. I really like that they are a tiny bit longer than the regular ones I picked up. And so far they haven't bent on me, which has been an issue with the other ones that also break. I'm stitching on 25ct, 20ct and 18ct. Love the smooth way they go through the fabric. If I don't end with problems I'll certainly be buying more.

from United States on 02/09/2015 - Perfection!
I stitch on 32, 36 and 40 count fabric and these are the perfect needle to use. Smooth eyes that don't create a fuzzy spot on the thread - cotton or silk. Just love them!
from United States on 01/12/2015 - Great Needles
Don't bend, nor burrs. Love them.
from United States on 12/08/2014 - Perfect needles
these are the perfect needles for stitching on 26-28-32 count and stitching over a single thread!
from United States on 08/09/2014 - The best needles
I never use anything but Piecemakers needles for my cross stitch. They are the sturdiest and most well-made ones around. I have tried all other brands DMC, Anchor, and various gold-plated ones but these outshine them all. The eyes never break and the needle itself is solid. I love the way they feel in my hands.
from United States on 11/23/2013 - Awesome needles
I've been stitching for 30 years. I discovered Piecemakers a couple of years ago and now I wouldn't use any other kind of needle!!!!!
