Good tips here! 2 of my favorites - use crazy glue on your under=finger when hand quilting.
And another about how to thread a needle: with the end of the thread between your finger and thumb, pull down until it is just a dot, place the eye of the needle over the dot and pinch the ends of your finger and thumb together pulling up the end of the thread. Never fails and I use that one every day! Thanks to the person who posted it, too. :-)
