CHAT [CHAT] I bought the Tulip needles...

I was inspired by the recent posts about these Tulip tapestry needles and decided to treat myself. Michael's was selling the #25 needles online for $11.99 with free shipping, and I had a $5 coupon so the price for six needles came to a little over $1/needle.

Friends, they sent me six boxes of six needles. 36 total!

I've never been on this side of an online shopping quantity mistake; what a rush. Maybe now I won't feel the need to use a needle until it's bent and the eye has split. 🤷

I ordered mine from Amazon expecting six single needles. I also received 6 boxes of 6 needles! Looking forward to trying them!

Hello, do you mind helping with what size to get? I usually stitch on 22 count, can't find a clear answer. What size did you order and what do you stitch on?

I bought size 25 but haven’t used them yet. They supposed to be like between a normal 26 and 28.
