    Default Greatest needle threader!

    I just received a Bohin Escort II needle threader. It is the greatest. Threads even the smallest needles, I don't have to use special needles with it, has a thread cutter and even has a little magnet to pick up needles. Got it on Amazon. Not sure how I lived without it. Someone mentioned it on another post. Thanks Quilting Board for being the best resource.

    Is this the one?

    If so, I found this Youtube video that shows how it works:

    Think I may need to get one of these!

    does look like it works. This is so weird, but I find the flesh colored part really creepy, almost nauseous. I wish it came in different color.

    Bohin applique and quilt needles are my absolute favorite!

    Looks like an improvement over the clover desk threaders.

    I have one and love it, just got from Amazon also, likely in response the earlier post! Threads all my needles, even the smallest.

    I also ordered one and received it last week. I just haven't had to use it yet, I'm just glad to know you all like yours. I also ordered one for my 77 yr.-old Mom, who(m)? I told a few yrs. ago that I would thread some needles for her when she needed me to, but she keeps plugging away at it herself and I forget about it. I'm a baaaad daughter!

    When I saw this thread, last week or two, I ordered it...I absolutely love it! I thought I had a different one that was purchased from Joann's years ago, but it is in needle heaven....or, somewhere in time ..... In my stash! Thank you to the original poster of this Bohin threader!!

    Thank you so much for this tute! I purchased one after reading the other post because I had a Clover and it never worked. However, when this came it had no instructions so I haven't tried it yet. Will do that today!
