Go to the size 11. They are pretty much the same size as 12 only with a bigger eye :wink:

Foxglove Cottage Betweens Size 9. I use only Foxglove Cottage needles. Also use her Embroidery & Straw needles, both Size 9. You can get them in sone LQS but I get them direct from her at

http://www.jeanakimballquilter.com

They are $3.00 for a tube of 16 needles. She ships faster than any place I've ordered from - regular USPS.
