I am looking to try the Hiroshima quilting between and I can’t seem to find the size I use. I’ve always used John James 11 between. Are the Hiroshima needles sized differently? I’ve seen 10,12 then they go to a 13. Also where would the best place to purchase them be? Thanks for advice?

size 11 do seem to be missing from the line looking at Hancock's of Paduacah.
I bought a box of mixed sizes a few years ago, sucked in by the nice packaging
Couldn't tell any difference.
The company started making needles 300+ years ago as a place for lower ranked samurai to earn an income.
