    Hi Nik. I agree Creative Glen......your welcome back is fun. Love the needlebook. I'm going to use your wonderfully witty Needless book. Let's see if they get it.

    I made a separate needle book for my yarn needles and keep it with my crochet hooks as I rarely need both sewing needles and yarn needles at the same time. 💕🌞🌵😷

    I've been watching quite a few of your videos recently, along with other youtubers that deal with book binding. I really enjoy your style and the fun way you approach your videos. Thank you for being both informative and entertaining.

    Thanks Nik...your video has reminded me of the needlebook I made at school when I was 8 years old! I can still remember the ‘pages’ made of soft woollen fabric. It seemed like an odd, old fashioned thing for a child to make in the 1960s! But here you are showing almost the exact thing all over again!

    Since I was a wee young thing, I have loved little books. I have needlebooks that include the buttons and threads and also included small scissors thru a hole left in the top of my book. Each one was so cute, I felt a need to attach adoption papers...not really but they were really that individually made that I had to really like the recipient. Now, you have opened another world for me so subscribe it is. Your personality is a drawing card also. Thanks, Bette in Tennessee.

    Victorian times... they sold pins and needles in little tiny paper envelopes... not the best way to keep them. One of the first projects a child being taught to sew, was a needle book... They would practice learning stitches on the needle book and keep their precious needles and pins in the book. Was a lovely way to teach a child and has been lost .

    Glad to know I"m not the only one that thinks "needless" when face with the word needles. This somehow reminds me of a dear friend, who has passed on, whose files I inherited. As I was going through them, I noticed one folder labeled "Useful Information," as if anyone would bother to file useless information. Still cracks me up. I miss her. Thanks for the memory, however unintended. I think I"ll make one of these and label it Needless, just because I can. ~ Lisa

    I love this...I had an old “tomato” pin cushion that had about 30 needles struck down in it where you couldn’t see them. I just sat down one day and kept feeling around till I found them all. This is a much better idea! The needles don’t get lost in the pin cushion!

    • @womensarmycorpsveteran2904
      @womensarmycorpsveteran2904 5 лет назад +3

      Tammie Freeman I did the same except it was so tatty that I cut it open. I was shocked at how many needles were inside. Now if we could only find out where all those missing socks are hiding.🧦

      @recoveringsoul755 4 года назад

      The vet x-rayed my ex husband's dog for an unrelated issue, and found a perfect image of a sewing needle, eye and all inside the dog. No idea how long it had been in there. But he must have just set the needle down on a table or something stupid, and the dog ate it and we never knew. It just travelled around inside the dog. Nothing we could really do. So, better in a pin cushion.

    A needless needles book! I love it. Gonna make a few of these for the places I keep needles. Much better than just sticking them in the back of my project bags. Love the clip idea to hold it together!
    Good job! You rock! 📍🧷❤️

    if you use real felted sheep wool, the lanolin in the wool helps keep your needles from rusting......

    • @HappySunshineDay
      @HappySunshineDay 4 года назад +1

      @Marilyn Guido - I also suspect that wool felt will be easier to work with. I am an experienced seamstress. I just made up a practice run of this needle book using synthetic craft felt. My results are less than lovely. Even with pins, the felt moved around so much, I could not stitch a straight line. I will try again soon, using wool felt. Int he meantime, I am also making some other needle books from quilter's cottons as gifts. I feel way more in control with those! Oh - perhaps I could just add a bit of wool felt inside the cotton books to hold the needles! That may prove to be the best of both worlds for me.

      Magnets to close this, or a sheet of magnetic stuff between the cover and felt, or even on the side of your glue bottle to hold it.

    From what I understand, real wool felt is best, as it's supposed to keep the needles sharp! Not sure on the plastic felt.... Always a fun time with you! 💜

    • @womensarmycorpsveteran2904
      @womensarmycorpsveteran2904 5 лет назад +5

      teresa wool is best because there’s always a bit of lanolin left no matter how much it’s washed. I don’t know about keeping them sharp, but it definitely keeps them from rusting especially if you live in a humid area.
