quiltedsunflower Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 I didn't realize they made a special gadget just for that. I use my Clover needle threader. It has an exposed razor kinda like that - and threads the needle, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busy Quilting Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 You could always use the cutter on the Towa gauge or I have a cute ladybug "Beetle Cutter" from Birch Craft that I am yet to stick on the edge of my sewing table. Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmland Quilter Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 I use my granddaughters. They love to cut and sort. They are a pretty handy gizmo standing around the sewing machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseCity Quilter Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 I love my cutting gizmo, especially last week when I was making 164 half square triangles and at the same time Roger was making 250 square in a square blocks, we were almost fighting over it. We sell them at our store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
