Threading the needle on your machine? Of course, there are auto threaders now on most new machines. If you can afford to trade up to continue your love of sewing, pls look into perhaps a gently used machine at your local dealer. Sewing has been a love of mine since an 8 yr old child, and it has been my therapy and Godsend since my husband had a stroke. I can steal away to my sewing room and let my mind rest.
