    if you use real felted sheep wool, the lanolin in the wool helps keep your needles from rusting......

    @Marilyn Guido - I also suspect that wool felt will be easier to work with. I am an experienced seamstress. I just made up a practice run of this needle book using synthetic craft felt. My results are less than lovely. Even with pins, the felt moved around so much, I could not stitch a straight line. I will try again soon, using wool felt. Int he meantime, I am also making some other needle books from quilter's cottons as gifts. I feel way more in control with those! Oh - perhaps I could just add a bit of wool felt inside the cotton books to hold the needles! That may prove to be the best of both worlds for me.

    Victorian times... they sold pins and needles in little tiny paper envelopes... not the best way to keep them. One of the first projects a child being taught to sew, was a needle book... They would practice learning stitches on the needle book and keep their precious needles and pins in the book. Was a lovely way to teach a child and has been lost .

    Thanks Nik...your video has reminded me of the needlebook I made at school when I was 8 years old! I can still remember the ‘pages’ made of soft woollen fabric. It seemed like an odd, old fashioned thing for a child to make in the 1960s! But here you are showing almost the exact thing all over again!

    Since I was a wee young thing, I have loved little books. I have needlebooks that include the buttons and threads and also included small scissors thru a hole left in the top of my book. Each one was so cute, I felt a need to attach adoption papers...not really but they were really that individually made that I had to really like the recipient. Now, you have opened another world for me so subscribe it is. Your personality is a drawing card also. Thanks, Bette in Tennessee.

    Glad to know I"m not the only one that thinks "needless" when face with the word needles. This somehow reminds me of a dear friend, who has passed on, whose files I inherited. As I was going through them, I noticed one folder labeled "Useful Information," as if anyone would bother to file useless information. Still cracks me up. I miss her. Thanks for the memory, however unintended. I think I"ll make one of these and label it Needless, just because I can. ~ Lisa

    I love this...I had an old “tomato” pin cushion that had about 30 needles struck down in it where you couldn’t see them. I just sat down one day and kept feeling around till I found them all. This is a much better idea! The needles don’t get lost in the pin cushion!

    The vet x-rayed my ex husband's dog for an unrelated issue, and found a perfect image of a sewing needle, eye and all inside the dog. No idea how long it had been in there. But he must have just set the needle down on a table or something stupid, and the dog ate it and we never knew. It just travelled around inside the dog. Nothing we could really do. So, better in a pin cushion.

    teresa wool is best because there’s always a bit of lanolin left no matter how much it’s washed. I don’t know about keeping them sharp, but it definitely keeps them from rusting especially if you live in a humid area.

    Lovely Nik as usual. Question: do you use a relatively thin needle with a small eye to sew your signatures in. I have been using a large needle and now I have noticed that it leaves a big hole in my pages. Too large of a hole. So is it better to use the smallest one that you can thread easily? Thx for your help. I really enjoy your videos and I have taken several of your courses. You’re a genius! Also do you think that a smaller number of pages and more signature is better than a few fat ones? Thx Nik
