    I've seen those and have been wondering how they work. Couldn't quite figure it out from looking at it. Thanks for the report! Sometimes I spend more time trying to thread the needle than I do sewing... :shock:

    I got the needle threader last year It is just great unless you have thicker needles like for embordery. I liked it.
    I got something even neater A bobbin winder--don't you just hate when your bobbin runs out and and want to use a different color thread, instead of switching your spool on machine you just use this gadget,works great.

    It came with a pack of 9 needles, of different sizes, that will last me
    for a long time of hand sewing. The needle fits 'eye side' down and
    then lay the thread across another part and push a lever, it brings
    the thread right thru the eye in a loop, voila!!! Hope you can understand my explanation. :P

    I'm hearing about that sidewinder bobbin winder. They only don't work with the green bobbin for the husky? My bobbin is clear plastic, a flat one. Anyone know?
    thanks,
