Sewing Machine Needle & Stitch Length Guide

Choose the right sewing machine needle size (EU/US), needle type, stitch length in millimeters and stitches per inch, and thread for every fabric from chiffon to denim.

Switch between inches and yards or centimeters and meters with the units button. Results update as you type. When you know how much you need, order your fabric by the meter: one meter is 39.37 inches, about 9% more than a yard.
