So pretty! Makes cutting much easier.

This needle threader is just gorgeous! The needle threader fits all of my needles except for the small intermediate needles that I like to use when sewing miniatures. I bought this to make sewing easier after recovering from arm surgery as grasping the small coin-shaped needle threaders is almost as difficult as trying to thread a needle without a needle threader. It's great for what I need it for and much less likely to get lost in my sewing space while I'm working as it has a small hole to…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

It's nice, but it's more advertising than functionality. The groove into which the thread is inserted is very microscopic.

Pros
  • good stuff

I LOVE that the duck's beak curls down to protect it. It somehow locks in place so it doesn't dangle or fall…

Pros
  • It's amazing
Cons
  • disappears
