I don't know if you do this or not but whenever I buy a needle threader no matter the quality I always take a drop of super glue and put it where the wire comes out whatever it is attached to. This helps them last longer so the wire does not come out at the first use.

If I didn't have a threader, I wouldn't be able to sew by hand. My eyes are going fast, and I just got new glasses

I have pm'ed and chatted with many who think I should charge $3 each so I think that is what most think is fair and sounds good to me..it is so hard to know what to charge for crafty things we do...I am just so pleased that so many seem to really like them

Sue, that's really nice. You should do well! I don't like those flimsy ones, they break easy.
