How To Use Magnetic Needle Minders

how to use a needle minder

Are you forever losing your needle when doing a hand stitching project? Well a needle minder just might be what you need.

A needle minder is just something magnetic that is attached to your work so that you can place your needle on top and not have to worry about it disappearing on to the floor or under a couch cushion. I may or may not be speaking from experience…

They are really simple to use. A needle minder is formed with two magnets and a decorative top.

Simply place the lose magnet under your work and place the decorative top on top of your work and voila, your needle now has a home.

Related: And Sew We Craft now also has a shop! Yippee! And you can purchase your very own needle minder there. At the moment only the large size is listed (1 1/2 inches (38mm) ) but smaller ones will be available in coming days.

    What a great idea! I’m actually doing some embroidery at the moment of a ship. I haven’t embroidered for years and had a moment last night where I wondered what I had done with the needle. I’m going to give this a try. I’d love you to link your pinterest pin up to my party.
