Needle Accessories for Tapestry

With size 18–22 needles and tapestry wool, a magnetic minder, a threader and a needle box speed the work. This category carries Hobianna figure wooden needle minders, MP Studia and Calin magnetic minders, the Milward metal needle threader, a wooden needle box and a handmade pumpkin pincushion. All accessories are in Needle Accessories, tapestry needles in Tapestry Needles, other aids in Tapestry Tools.

What Each Accessory Does

The magnetic minder clips to the scroll frame edge or canvas; since a needle cannot be parked in stiff canvas, it is the only practical way not to lose it. The Milward metal threader pulls 4-ply wool through a size 18–20 eye in one movement; the wooden box separates tapestry needles by size. The pumpkin pincushion holds pins and spare needles on the table. With a hoop cover and scissors they form the basic tapestry bag kit.
