Install invisible zippers in a snap with this foot. It's inexpensive and it's great! It's the invisible zipper foot that fits most sewing machines. It comes with four blue adaptors to fit low, high, slant and low front mounting machines - so you're coved. Instructions are inclueded. And just so you know YKK is the company that also produces invisible zippers - so if they don't know the inside secrets on how to install them, no one does!

The Essential Foot Pack (Item #EFP) Price Drop!

This pack contains eight specialty feet, a snap on shank adaptor, and a double needle. It includes an open toe, pintuck, shirring, hemmer, blind hem, roller, 1/4" seam, and cording feet. All the feet are compatible with sewing machines that use standard low shank feet.

Schmetz Double Eye Needle, yup, two eyes, on one needle!. (Item #DEN)
These are the newest needles from Schmetz. One needle with a double eye. You thread your machine for twin needles using two spools of thread, but when you thread the needle, there are two eyes. So one thread goes in the top eye, the other in the bottom eye. Go through the stitches you have on your machine to see the effect you will get! (Size 80/12) 5 needles per card.

Schmetz "Pink" Universale Needle Card (Item #SPNC1)
Schmetz is proud to offer this pink needle package desinged especially to honor women and educate them about the risks and effects of breast cancer. This package contains a 10 - piece assortment of Universal needles (2 - 70, 3 - 80, 3 - 90, and 2 - 100).

Schmetz Universal Point Machine Needles, my Mom always told me to use the best! (Item #UPN)
I use Schmetz needles because they are an excellent quality. These fit the majority of machines. I use the 60/8 for fine heirloom sewing, 70/10 for cutwork and light weight fabrics, 80/12 for quilting cottons and medium weight fabrics. (Specify size) 5 needles per card.

Schmetz Microtex Sharp Machine Needles, considered "deluxe" for heirloom sewing. (Item #MSN)
These needles are one step up from Universal Needles for your heirloom sewing. They have a sharp point for silk, batiste and microfiber fabrics. (Size 60/8) 5 needles per card.

Triple Needle (Item # TTN)
Yes, a triple needle and they're lots of fun. Use for tucks and all types of wonderful top and decorative stitching. Your top stitching will never be uneven again and don't tell how you got it so even, just smile and say thanks. :) Size 3.0/80, 1 per card, 6.69 each.

Single Wing Needle (Item # WN)
These needles have "wings" which create holes in the fabric that resemble entredeux or hand done hem stitching. Use a zig-zag or simple decorative stitch with the single wing needle. Phillip Pepper's book "Peppering" is an excellent resource for using this and the double wing needle to their fullest.

Double Wing Needle (Item # DWN)

These needles have "wings" which create holes in the fabric that resemble entredeux or hand done hem stitching. Use a straight stitch with the double wing needle . Debra's new Book Modern Machine Techniques is an excellent resource for using this and the single wing needle to their fullest.

The Fancy Needle Set (Item # FNS)
This needle set includes all of Debra's favourites as mentioned in her new book Modern Machine Techniques. It contains a 1.6/70 twin needle (the one you can turn corners with without a pucker), a triple needle, a wing needle, and a double wing needle. This set would normally sell for $20.76 individually, but save 15% as a set!

Metallic Needles (Item # SMN)
I use these needles for my Battenberg Lace By Machine. They have a large eye to make threading easier and accomodate the heavier Mettler 30 weight thread we use (shown below). They are great for metallic threads because they prevent shreading of delicate metallic threads. Size 80/12, 5 needle per card, $6.25 each.

The NeedlePack, A Caddy for Machine Needles (Item #NP)

I love this thing! In my sewing room it's thumb tacked right in front of my machine on the bulletin board! (shown)

Sort up to 108 used needles by type and size, store up to 12 new needle packs, and tag needles in use. Customize your NeedlePack by identifying single needles in the additional write-in spaces.
