where can I hand embroidery needles in size 16?
Hi - well, you'll have to be a bit more specific. What type of needle are you looking for? Tapestry needles in size 16 can be found at Joann's or your local craft or sewing store. If you're looking for hand embroidery needles like crewel needles, size 16 would be very, very small, and I don't know if they make them that small! I've seen size 12 (10 is more common for fine work), but that's about it. Same with sharps. The tapestry needle has a blunt tip and a long eye, and is good for even-weave, open fabric, like counted cross stitch fabrics or looser linens, or for canvas for needlepoint, etc. If you want a tapestry needle with a sharp point, look for chenille needles, which also come in size 16. Good luck!
Where can I find iron on transfer paper that I can print off my computer.
