I broke a needle while quilting the other day and I had a hard time replacing it because my fingers are so swollen because of RA. and I could not see!
I wear glasses and when I bend down to look under something it is hard to see anything. I needed to see the little hole where the needles goes. After much thought I decided I needed a little mirror to help me see what a I am doing.
I could see the needle but not the hole it goes into.
I pulled out this case of eye shadow with a little mirror in the cover. I broke the cover off.
I was able to see exactly where to push in the new needle!
This mirror idea worked great for me!
I am pointing to the little hole where the needle goes. You can see it clearly in the mirror!
What do they say about necessity? Mother of invention....
ReplyDeleteWow, I am impressed -- and SO stealing this idea next time I need to change a needle! Thanks for sharing this.
