Hand sewing goes to the next level of excellence with neat, even stitches without the need to measure and mark. Designed to increase confidence, reduce anxiety, speed up sewing and achieve excellence where precision is paramount, the Certain Stitch Distance System is suitable for beginners and experts alike. Embroidery, fashion, home sewing, quilting - some stitch needles have been designed to provide sequential stitches for great results, created in minutes There are several ways to use these comfortable needles from hand-sewn hemming and hand sewing to top seams and surface embellishments; everything can be achieved at the height of perfection.

A colored stripe has been added to the Sharps, Betweens, Crewels and Short Darners needle bar to make it easy to determine how long the stitch length should be. The resulting stitches are evenly spaced and the same length, reducing time and effort and making wobbly and strenuous sewing a thing of the past! It can sometimes be difficult to get confused when shopping for cross stitch needles to find out which brands to buy as well as what sizes or types. Tapestry needles are most commonly used for cross stitching, but there are other specialty needles. They can help turn your project into a beautiful piece of art, and they can make your colorful time even more enjoyable.
