Bullions

tapestry and bullion needles

I am almost finished with the last Geisha and am doing the hair embellishments - a gold hair comb done as a bullion.   The first bullion I did with the needle I was working with - a 22 tapestry needle.  It looked a little loose even on the second try so I decided to use my bullion needle.  I have one anyway - why not!  I think it makes for a neater bullion.  I am not sure if it's because the bullion needle isn't tapered like the tapestry needle or that it was my 5th one!

Don't you love finishing projects!!
