I've never heard of them either, so I googled, but I haven't found anything.
Can you give us a link please Connie so we can see them. They sound good. :D

Are you talking about the beading needles that are kind of wobley and kind of spread open to take the thread? They are very thin and have two ends.

I don't know anything about this product. I have never heard of it. Could you give us a link or a name so we could investigate it some more.

:shock: :shock: I am with Daz. That prise is just a bit over the top for me and it also says they are for basic sewing which means pointy ends and I can poke my fingers enough with the regular tapestry needles thanks. :doh:

Well it does say they are not plated, so you can file them down.

All I do to thread a needle is bend the thread over the eye, slip it off, squash it flat, and pop the thread through the eye. No frayed ends. No frayed nerves. (*thinks she's missing something important here*)
