[Nfb-krafters-korner] using a beading needle

[Neva Fairchild]

Even people with 20/20 vision have trouble seeing the Big Eye beading needle
when it is on the floor. I have used the recommended magnet method many
times. I also have a beading mat that is like a piece of a Velux blanket to
keep things from rolling away, but I think I am going to find a flat magnet
and put it on my jelly roll pan that I use as a beading tray. It keeps
things from rolling away and it is sturdy enough to put in my lap and work
in my easy chair.

Good! Yes, losing needles is one of my big problems,too. Hope you found it
and got it up before the dogs found it.  Good luck with the beading.
