I haven't seen something like this before, but I like it.
He uses it to pull the needle out, must be so much easier on your fingertips. Should I see it in a store, I'm going to get one. Thanks for sharing. |
never seen it before, it is used like a pliers to grip the needle and pull it through. I usually use my scissors to do that on the rare occasion when it gets stuck.
I had to watch it twice to see what she was doing. |

When hand quilting, I have never had a problem pulling a needle through where I required any kind of tool other then a little rubber gripper and for that I simply cut a piece of rubber from rubber cleaning gloves.
I have, on the rare occasion, had to use plyers on a tied T-Shirt quilt where I was using embroidery floss and a large embroidery needle. |
