Can someone suggest a store, preferably within 10 miles of Littleton, where I can buy an upholstery needle? Here is the story. I would like to stitch up a bad spot on a chair. A friend told me that you can buy a curved needle to do this job, and that this is called an upholstery needle. My reason for posting this is to avoid a wild goose chase trying to find one. I want to do this job myself, so please don't refer me to an upholsterer unless this person also has a store that sells things like upholstery needles.

There is a store on Rt 2A that specializes in curtains and upholstery.
Now the old brain cells are going, and someone else will have to verify
it, but I "think" the name was Calico Curtains. My wife has gone there
to get supplies for making roman shades. It's on the south side of the
road and it's not a big place.

And, if all else fails, THE FABRIC PLACE, in various locations
will have what you need.

I think most any fabric store would have curved upholstery needes (a.k.a. "blind-stitch" needle). They are usually sold in a pack of "craft" needles that include several other weird needles, (leather needles, sail needles, several sized curved needles, glove needles, sack needles, etc). That's where I got mine. It was cheap, something like $5 for the pack. -Mike | |||||
