    Well, I don't need one right now, but I know I will in the future so thanks for the review and I think I am going to buy one now to have for later...then I won't have to figure which one to get...that works!

    I LOVE my needle threader! I got one because the little wire threaders were too big for the needles I was using. This one works like a charm!

    I take it to Project Linus meetings and everyone loves to use it.

    I bought one here and love it. I got tired of breaking the wires on the other kind when I was using a double thread for hand quilting.

    For those of you that don`t like the clover one I ordered this one. Waiting for it to come in this week so can`t give a review but heard they work better.

    When I looked this one up, it seems to me that it might work better than the clover, or maybe the video shows it better. I like the way it says to click on it a little to get the eye lined up. Plus you can use it for bigger needles and thread. This may be the desk threader to have. Let us know how it works.

    Should be arriving any day as it was shipped on the 11th.Its cleared customs and on its way to me in my little village. Will let you know. Hope it works well as shipping from florida was a little pricey but might be worth it.

    I must have the original needle threader (50 yrs or so? LOL) anyway the newer one looks a lot better. The old one I have is getting split (the plastic seam) from many uses. I still use the old fashioned wire ones in a pinch...it travels better and takes up less space when on the go. Am definitely going to see if I can find the Bohn as it looks like it will accommodate a larger variety of needles.

    Thanks for the info...I always learn something new here.
