The Origin Of My Needle Minders

 

Currently,  I have about 700 needle minders in this studio.  Not all of them are part of Etsy listings, many of them are from charity events I made custom minders for but all of them stemmed from one needle minder, the Werther.  I don't remember when someone told me about using needle minders but, as often happens, when I heard about this neat crafting thing, instead of buying one I thought 'I can make that'.  And what I really wanted was a Werther.  I though it was so hilarious that it would LOOK like I had a sticky candy on my embroidery but it would be the needle minder. =D  Which led me to the shrink film and all of its wonderful customization. And, well, currently I have about 700 needle minders in this studio. =D
