I have been sewing since I was six and I had never heard of a needle minder until today at the ripe old age of 73. Thank you.
I use my needle minder to hold my little sewing scissors on my shirt. This way I have it handy no matter where I am; sewing at my machine, hand sewing or when working at my quilting machines. They are always handy to snip a thread wherever I am!
Much better than my usual way! Not that I have ever gone out and realized that my sewing needle or pins were still poked in my shirt.
Finally I know what needle minders are! Thanks.
Be sure to use rare earth magnets. Don't use the black magnets. The black ones can leave a stain on the fabric. Needle minders are great for holding charts to the fabric. Stops needles from rusting into the fabric if they've been left for a long time. I'll sometimes thread 2 needles at once (when I'm doing a large area of one colour) and leave the 2nd needle on the minder. If I'm doing the Parking method when I'm cross stitching I'll sometimes wrap the hanging threads around a needle minder. (Parking is when you leave the thread in position on the fabric ready to get back to it later.
Yes, I definitely need a few needle minders! Have couple cross stitch projects & hemming that needs to be finished...that's 3 needle minders! TY Laura for bringing this valuable little tool to our attention!
I've cross stitched since I was 11 years old (I'm 62) and I'd never heard of needle minder until about last fall. I have one now that I use all the time! I keep it attached to the fabric in my hoop so my needle is close at hand. It was pretty hard picking one, there are so many to choose from! I had no idea this little gadget was out there and I'm glad I now have one.
I use needle minders mostly for my cross stitching. They are a handy tool!
I put mine on the lampshade near my chair.
I bought a custom one on etsy! Now my kitty's precious photo minds my needles🙂
Hi. Wow that is so special. Do you still know the name of the store and be willing to share? Thanks.

Thank you Marie. I appreciate your time. Going to make one with my cat that passed. It will bring a smile to me everyday. Had no clue there were custom versions available. I bet a lot of quilters will get one now.
Hello! I hope this quick note finds you in good spirits and healthy. I have a busy day in my sewing room and now I'm sewing a little tea mat for my living room end table while I watch you. I hope you have a wonderful evening! Thanks for posting this video!
Mind your heart if you have pacemaker ❤️
Hi Laura first time hearing about a needle minder. I cross stitch also and it would have come in handy. Thanks for the tip.
I use small tins I have collected for “thread catchers”. I have one with every hand stitching bag I have (binding bag, EPP, cross stitch). I put my needle minder on the tin lid.
I have had one for years and am going to buy several more. They’re great!
I make my own, have them everywhere. Use them with cross stitch, quilting epp, my 91yr old mum uses one for her longstitch.
I never knew this item existed! Definitely getting a couple of them! Thank you for sharing.
I did not even know these things existed! Thank you for sharing! ❤
I definitely need these for when I hand stitch my bindings. Thanks for the explanation and ideas!
Gracias por compartir sus proyectos desde Colombiaa gracias bendiciones
What a great idea!
what a great idea Laura. Just ordered some sewing machine needle minders. I so enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing
Use them like you described in your YT and my cross stitch. I can not live with out having one now. It is my new weakness.
I really need one of them!!! I do a lot of hand sewing and it would be perfect....................
Never thought about wearing it..on my sleeve.. Mine fit on my flannel covered board... & it works.
I try to always rethread my needle with an end knot, even when I place it on my tomato!
If you have a pacemaker or defibrillator never put a magnet on your shirt. I put my needle minder on the armchair caddy that is on my chair for my remotes. The remotes are in the pockets that hang down the side of the chair so they are not near the magnet.
Have several I use with cross stitch. They are also very easy to make. Old costume jewelry if perfect for making your own.
Hard to stop collecting them one you start!
Mind your watch when you put it on your sleeve........
Wow ...awesome.. inspiring embellishments on fabric as you work on patchwork etc. projects 👏👍🏻😍
I cross stitch, & I use mine every day! I have quite a few of them! They are so cute! Warning: They are like potato chips! If you buy one , you will have a collection before you know!!😉
When I EPP I use a Sew Tight to help me hold my pieces. Built in needle minder.
I use them for my cross stitch and embroidery work. There are so many designs and I have made some of my own.
I never new these existed! What a brilliant idea, I’m going over to Amazon right after I watch your video! 🥰
Actually, a quilting and embroidery site called Flamingo Toes has a big selection of them. They are really cute.
I also use it for my little needle threader.
I never thought to put it on my clothes! I use them on my cross stitch and hand sewing and mending.
I have a collection of them. 😍
Great ideas!
❤️
👍
What is the name of the quilt behind you. I love hearts

I need one of these
I would never attach needles or scissors to my body. If there's a way to stab myself, I'll find a way. Don't need to set myself up for an inevitable stab. Other ideas for the needle minder are helpful, though.
If you are wearing one with needles be cautious of hugging someone. No porcupines wanted. 😁
