I ended up sending the last post 2 X, so I deleted and have to put some thing in the empty post!
I also think that when you can't thread your needle you don't have enough light.
There are very few very fine needle threaders, and they seem to come apart really easily.
My younger sister laughed at me last summer when she saw I had a little red anvil type needle threader. I know what I am giving her for her 50th birthday!
