from United States on 10/07/2023 - John James
I have never crossed stitched with a John James needle before… I am loving these needles!!! They have a great feel to them.

from United States on 04/08/2023 - Good needles
Haven't cross stitched in a long time but I always used John James. Happy to start using them again.

from United States on 03/13/2023 - Excellent needles
Easy to insert thread and thin to work on. Perfect for crosstitch.

from United States on 01/05/2023 - Good Needles
Thinner than Bohins, but I do like stitching with these.

from United States on 05/11/2022 - John James needles
I’m not a fan. I decided to try them because I had heard that even the 28s have a larger eye. My first project using them hasn’t even been finished and I have two bent needles. I will use the rest of this pack but I won’t be buying this brand again.

from Canada on 04/21/2022 - Excellent needles
Very nice. Well made. I like the feel of them when working on projects.

from United States on 12/14/2020 - My Favorites
Currently working on a long project (27" W x 30" L) on 25-ct and these needles are positively the very best I've ever used!

from United States on 12/11/2019 - Excellent
These are my favorite needles, and I won't ever use anything else. They are the perfect length, easy to thread and they do not bend or break. I have tried several other brands and have found that they are either too short, flimsy, or fray the floss when threading the needle. I use the size 28 needle for 18 count cross stitch.

from United States on 10/03/2019 - My go-to needles for 40ct
I really don't stitch with anything else anymore, these are the best.

from United States on 09/01/2019 - I have had others but John James are the best
Love these needles. Just the right size

from United States on 02/24/2019 - Perfect
I like these needles and prefer the smaller eye of the size 28.

from United States on 05/16/2018 - Best Needle
These needles are the perfect size for me. Love them!

from United States on 04/25/2018 - Love these needles!
Best needles I have used. Fills good in my finger tips.

from United States on 08/22/2017 - I love this company for cross stitch supplies!
I was searching for this particular needle and of course I found it here! Thank you 123stitch.com for offering just what I am looking for.

from United States on 07/28/2017 - Great needles
John James is my favorite brand of needle...the eyes hold up for me better than any brand....with other brands the eyes break too quickly...these needles hold up for lots of stitching...

from United States on 01/30/2017 - great needles
I love these needles. Great for use on linen.

from United States on 12/31/2016
I have no complaints about these needles. But then I see no difference in needles to begin with. ,maybe it is because I'might sort of a newbie stitcher.Given time ever I might be able to form a better opinion.

from United States on 03/07/2015 - Size 28 John James Tapestry
I do a ton of stitching - at least 5 hours every day. These are, by far, my favorite tapestry needles - the fine size, the consistency of the product. I have not deviated from these in years.

from United States on 01/02/2015 - Not happy
I am not happy with these. The eyes almost come to a point at the top and keep trapping my thread. The ones I got are not squared off at the top like the picture. Am disappointed as I really like John James needles and rarely use anything else. I bought ten packages. will edit this if I find some of the rest are better.

from United States on 12/03/2014 - Great needles
These are great needles for cross stitching. They taper enough at the end to be able to get them into those tight places on the fourth time thru the hole on 20 and 22 count fabric.

from United States on 09/15/2014 - John James needles
I ordered three packs of needles to see which I preferred and I like the John James size 28 the best for cross stitch because they are longer than the Mary Arden and Piecemakers of the same size. DMC shortened their needles so I was looking for an alternative. Now they are my favorite.

from United States on 06/21/2014

from United States on 04/30/2014 - very good
john james are my favorites needles for cross stitch,im happy with the number 28.no use other.

from United States on 03/27/2014 - Very Nice
Very nice needles. I like using them on 28 count fabric in the confetti areas of a cross stitch pattern.

from United States on 11/25/2013 - My favorite for cross stitch
John James needles are still my ultimate favorite for counted cross stitch. I've tried just about every brand on the market, but these remain tops in my opinion!

from United States on 10/25/2013 - 28's are great
28's are great to stitch with and the best to go back and do your backstitching.....fit beautifully between those tight stitches. Be careful not to grip them too tightly they are thin and will bend to shape of your thumb
