My Brother embroidery machine has a needle threader that works but the threader on my Janome has never worked. I can not walk, drive or sew without my glasses but I have to take them off to thread a needle.

My Brother has a needle threader that I love.
My granddaughter (age 9) has a Brother that threads the machine and needle all at once ! ! ! believe it or not. I've done it a couple of times, and it is wonderful ! !

I have poor eyesight., even with a magnifier, but the white paper behind is better than nothing. I will look for one of the little needle threaders that are mentioned here. the one on my machine works part time.........LOL jacie

I love my needle threader on my machine, but for years I just kept a wire needle threader stuck to my machine with velcro, if it broke, and they do, I just stuck the piece of velcro to the new one. I also went to Walmart and got a lighted magnifying glass for $15.00
