Schmetz TOPSTITCH 80/12 (5 pcs)

Schmetz Topstitch needles 80/12 are specially designed for sewing with thick thread, topstitch thread and decorative thread. The extra‑large eye and extended thread groove allow the thread to move smoothly through the needle without fraying or breaking, making these needles perfect for decorative stitching, quilting, topstitching and free‑motion embroidery on a regular household machine.

Thanks to the slightly rounded point and high‑quality chrome finish, this needle can be used on a wide range of fabrics. Many quilters choose this needle for quilting and free‑motion quilting. The manufacturer recommends using a straight stitch plate for optimal control and stitch accuracy.

This needle is also ideal for decorative stitches and free‑motion embroidery. Embroidery machines can use this Topstitch needle as well, especially when working with thicker threads or special decorative effects.

⚠️ Important when using thicker thread

When sewing with thicker thread, you may need to adjust your machine’s upper tension. Testing on a scrap piece is recommended.

If you also want to use thicker thread in the bobbin, use a cordonnet bobbin case or quilting bobbin case. Names may vary; ask your sewing machine dealer which type fits your machine.
