All My Needles

I've had this project on my work table for a year. A big needle book for my entire collection of various needles. I got tired of looking through a pile of different packs of needles and different pincushions or sewing baskets for the needle I wanted for some task. My son thinks I have a lot of needles. Maybe yes, but not really. Needles come in packs of several, there are multiple sizes for each type of needle and there are multiple types of needles. Start doing the math and suddenly you have a bunch of needles. Thus the need for one large needle book to keep them all in one place. I have embroidery, sharpes, blunts(tapestry/needlepoint), quilting, bookbinding, beading, and a few upholstery needles.













I also have a few vintage golden eye needles my Mom gave me. I really don't know how old they are, several decades, but they are in perfect shape and some of my favorite needles.
