Needle threader

Not only did I find the needle threader in my sewing tin but also only just realised after many years that there is a thread cutter on the right hand end of the threader. Doh!!!
Guess that I haven’t used it that often.

Never seen a needle threader with a cutter on it too, very handy.

First time I have ever seen this! You did a marvelous job of getting all the details so well in this close up

[Kitty Hawke]

Ohh....my one is only a threader....that one is the XL model !!!

[Peter Dulis]

nice one :)

[Linda Burgess]

Very good capture.

[Dione Giorgio]

Nice shot. Very well captured.

[Mags]

A lovely flash of red capture. I like your thimble.

[Diana]

Same as Babs, great find and capture. Your calendar looks fabulous Susan!

[amyK]

Great focus and light use

[Liz Gooster]

Lovely. The reflection in the eye of the threader is beautiful and the texture of the fabric is the perfect background

[LManning (Laura)]

Really nice lighting.

[Kate]

Nice lighting and presentation

beautiful low key

You learn something every day (I didn’t know that) not that I do a lot of sewing mind you.

[Beryl Lloyd]

What a handy tool to have especially as we grow older and the eyesight not so good! Great focus, light and presenttoon and the "flash of red! "

[Kathy]

I particularly like the light on the thimble. The needle sews straight even though it's quite crooked?

[Carole Sandford]

I have never been able to work these. Particularly like the thimble.

i love thimbles and i still use them. the threader i never use even though i have more than one in my sewing box. as well as the thread cutter as i prefer to use my little stork scissors. aces!

I like how you composed this. Sounds like a very useful object.

I never remember about needle threaders until I have spent a few minutes licking the end of the thread and trying to get it through the eye.....

[Susan Wakely]

@casablanca I’m the same. I have an auto threader on my sewing machine and forget about that as well.

[Susan Wakely]

@randystreat I think that his particular needle is bent because I forced it through leather. It is my skill or lack of it the determines how straight the stitch is.🤣

[Pam]

Love the contrast! I have never seen a thread cutter before. Brilliant.

[Renee Salamon]

Never saw a needle threader before - great idea
