Betweens needles were designed specifically for hand quilting. They were made for the traditional hand quilting done with a quilting frame or hoop. When using the traditional "rocker" method of hand quilting, the needle's short shank provides easy control. The Betweens needle is thicker than other needles, giving it added strength for moving through a quilt's multiple layers. Small quilting stitches are possible with any size of Betweens needles. Make your needle choice based on its comfort in your hand and your ability to thread it.

The Size 10 Betweens needle is preferred by many hand quilters. It is long enough to handle easily, and thick enough to prevent frequent breaking from the pressure of the thimble when using the "rocker" method of hand quilting.
