[Tips Discussion] Needle storage

[Copy link]
Post time 2015-9-17 19:32 | Show all posts |Read mode
I have an unusual problem. Ive started HAED. Which made me to buy many needles. Also, I have different sizes (24,26 and 28). So, I have a question: how to storage needles without destroying them? I tried something like pin cushion, but my needles started to look funny (and useless to stitch).

Any good ideas? :D

I leave mine in the original packaging until I need one.  If I have extras I stick them in packing foam from electronic purchases.  I cut the foam down to size, its heavy enough to stand and they are within arms reach.  I too use varying sizes, the larger sizes I use as marking pins for the ends of blocks or  where I am to go after the stitch Im currently working is completed.  I only use 28s to stitch with, but the others are great to hold floss and mark areas.

I also have a small tin (with Dave the minion on it) that use to contain  candies that I popped a magnet in it and some needles.
