NEEDLE HOLDER….

I keep losing my pins & needles…

so I have been watching videos on You Tube on making needle holders…there  quite a few to choose from…got some supplies together and went for it….

This will be mine..hope maybe I can sell a few…got some material for the backing…some batting, lace,ribbon and felt …not sure I will make them like this again…to much involved to sell ….

When the inside was all finished I decorated with a couple roses and tied it shut…so needles and pins don’t fall out….I followed a You Tube video it called to use glue and no sewing…will do sewing next time…

The needle book has 4 pages you can use…I have added a needle threader to the book… Been having a terrible time threading needles…cant see good enough…takes me at least 20 min. or more…the cataracts are the culprit…be glad when Medicare says ok for surg. very disappointed I cant do this sewing …love applique …. When I make the next one will post about it…all for now thanks for looking and come back soon..blessings to all donna
