These needle minders are made from offcuts and spare pieces of acrylic saved from landfill and is available in 4 different designs - lightning bolt, cloud, star or heart and 5 colour ways - black, light grey, pink, white and blue.
The magnets are neodymium and although they may be small they are VERY strong. Keep away from little hands, pets, electronics (this includes sensitive medical devices such as pacemakers). Due to their size they also present as a choking hazard and best kept away from children.
The needle minders are strong, but also fragile and can shatter if dropped or slammed together. Rather than trying to pull the magnets to separate them, I recommend sliding the two parts of the needle minder to detach.
HOW TO USE:
The acrylic shape bit sits on the front of your work, whilst the magnet sticks to the reverse side, holding the minder in place. Pop you needle on top of the acrylic and there you have it - a safe home for your needle when not in use.
An absolute must for any sewing kit.

The nitty gritty
The pack contains the following:
Chenille pointed needles whose size can be quickly identified with their colour-coded eyes.
Chenille needles are very similar to tapestry needles, but they have a sharp tip.
'Certain Stitch' needles have been developed to give consistent stitches, the band of colour on the needle shaft helps to create stitches which are evenly spaced and of a consistent length.
Perfect for dark fabrics, use this water soluble pencil to draw or trace designs on to fabric, then spray or dampen to remove the ink.

Suitable for embroidery, quilting, cross stitching and dressmaking
