[Nfb-krafters-korner] using a beading needle

[Lindy van der Merwe]

Hi Neva, what a great idea. I'm sure a piece of one of those magnetic sheets 
will work great for keeping small metal objects in their place. I actually 
saw a piece somewhere around my house a few days ago. Now to just find it? 
(grin)

>> Oh yes Linda!  That is exactly what it is. now I see how to use it!

>> Well, this was nice to learn about my needle, thanks. Now I am off to
