Janet's Favorite Needle: Jeans 90/14
"When constructing my
Double Green Shopping Bags made from recycled blue jeans this needle works wonderfully sewing through crossed or flat felled seams like a dream. I have used
SCHMETZ needles exclusively for over 25 years!"

Janet teaches industrial sewing techniques developed by her aunt, Margaret Islander. Janet now owns
Islander Sewing Systems Company which publishes Janet's clothing patterns. Her pattern directions are easy to follow and I love the time saving industrial sewing shortcuts.

Between writing books and developing DVDs, Janet has found time to share her love of sewing with even more people by creating the
National Sewing Council, a non-profit organization focused on encouraging more people to experience the joy of sewing. Janet serves at the Executive Director.
