Sometimes, it’s just \u003cem\u003enice \u003c\/em\u003eto have nice things. That’s why we offer a wide range of high-quality sewing accessories to really take your needlework to the next level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBest Scissors for Needlework\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeedlework is often a delicate process which requires very specific tools to achieve the best results. For fine stitching projects such as embroidery, we recommend that you buy small scissors that offer you the manoeuvrability you need to access those tight spots that larger scissors can’t reach. Most embroidery scissors are just 3-4 inches long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen it comes to needlework, the sharper the blade, the better. Sharp blades allow you to cut cleanly through threads without leaving them frayed or dishevelled. Many embroidery scissors also feature a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/riotwholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/havels-embroidery-scissors-3-5-curved-tips\"\u003eslight curve\u003c\/a\u003e, which allows you to achieve those close and precise cuts that are often essential to fine needlework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou and your scissors are probably going to become very well-acquainted over the years, so why not purchase something special that you know you’ll \u003cem\u003ewant \u003c\/em\u003eto keep using?

It may not seem like much, but adding a little personality to your sewing accessories can really elevate your mood as you work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSewing and Embroidery Needles\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most essential tools for needlework is, of course, your needles. But with such a range of different sewing needle sizes available, it can be difficult to know which one you should be using. Choosing the right needle for the job depends on both the fabric and the thread you’re working with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a general rule, you should try to use needles that are roughly as wide as your thread. That way you can be confident that your thread will pass through the fabric easily (this helps to prevent fraying), without leaving an unsightly hole in your finished stitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s likely that your choice of fabric and thread may vary from project to project. For this reason, we encourage you to purchase a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/riotwholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/bohin-crewel-embroidery-needles-size-3-9-15-pkg?_pos=5\u0026amp;_sid=5d308e11c\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003epack of needles\u003c\/a\u003e, so that you can always find the right size.

The pack comes with three different sized needles to suit a wide variety of threads and fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat’s the Best Way to Thread an Embroidery Needle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile it can be fun to ‘wow’ people with your sharp eyes and steady hands, threading your needles can quickly become a pain. Thicker threads can also become damaged and begin to fray as you attempt to pass them through the eye of the needle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo save your thread (and your sanity), we recommend purchasing a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/riotwholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/clover-embroidery-threader-apple-green\"\u003ehandy needle threader\u003c\/a\u003e, which is designed to hook the thread and gently pull it through the eye of the needle. This is a fabulous tool for thicker threads, unsteady hands, and struggling eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThread organisation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeedlework is a fine and precise activity. But without the right organisation, you can quickly lose track of your threads and get confused by your colours. This is where \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/riotwholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/loran-cross-stitch-project-cards-11x2-75-3-pkg\"\u003eCross Stitch Project Cards\u003c\/a\u003e can really come in handy.
