Antique Silver Florentine Needle Minder Magnet

Description

You can quit mindlessly searching for your needles and counting pins by using a needle minder. It's so frustrating to misplace your needle while you are working diligently on a needlework project. You drop it on the floor or pin it to your shirt and can't find it when you need it. Now you can keep several threaded needles handy right on your project. Just place the design piece on the front of your work and the single magnet on the back side of your fabric. Place your needle on the top piece and it will stay put until you need it. Or keep your extra counting pins there when you aren't using them. Whether you use a hoop, Q-Snap, scroll frame, or work in hand, needle minders can work for you. This antique silver Florentine cabochon is glued to a 1/2" x 1/16" (12.7 mm x 1.59 mm) grade N42 rare earth magnet. It is approximately 1 3/8" (35mm), larger than an American quarter. Each needle minder consists of a cabochon magnet for the front of your work and a corresponding plain magnet for the back. Please do not allow the magnets to slam together! They are very strong and may break or even pull off the cabochon if slammed together with too great a force. It is best to slide them apart and gently bring them together on opposite sides of your stitching fabric.
