• Tailor Your ENTIRE Closet
The bad news: there are a lot of different sewing machine needles. The good news: you only need two-universal and denim needles.
When I started, I was overwhelmed by all the tools and settings, especially sewing machine needles. But trust me, you'll mainly use a universal needle for almost everything. It's versatile and reliable. For thicker materials like jeans, leather, or canvas, you'll switch to a denim needle.
Sure, there are ballpoint, microtex, and jersey needles, but for tailoring t-shirts, dress shirts, pants, and chinos, the universal needle will cover you 90% of the time. I rarely use the other types and don't even know where they are.
You can get all your needles at Walmart for about $3, or Jo-Ann Fabrics if that's your thing (though I have a love-hate relationship with them). Just be aware of pretentious salespeople there.
Needles have two sizes: European and American. The European size ranges from 60 (for thinner materials) to 120 (for thicker materials), and the American size goes from 8 to 19. They’re combined, so a 60/8 needle is for delicate fabrics, and a 120/19 needle is for heavy-duty stuff. The universal needle is an 80/12-perfect for most tasks.
Oh, and pro tip: change your needle regularly, especially after a tailoring spree. It keeps your work clean and efficient.
