    It looks a lot like an upholstery needle to me. They can be found at any fabric store.

    That might be an upholstery needle-I know some the big ones for upholstery are bent. That's where I'd start looking, anyway.

    Years ago when you bought a card of or a set of needles, you got this one with it. It is definitely an upholstery needle. A good thing to get used to for tying quilts but I
    never had any luck using one. You might find on in the notions and fabric department of any store that sells upholstery or sewing fabrics.
