The SOHMO Magnetic Needle Minder keeps your needle exactly where you put it between stitches – no more lost needles, no more hunting around the fabric or the couch cushions, no more needles falling into the work. The strong 10mm magnet holds firmly through most embroidery fabrics and quilt tops without shifting.

The mechanism is simple: place the enamelled face plate on top of your fabric, tuck the magnetic backing plate underneath, and the two snap together through the fabric. Your needle parks on the face plate between stitches and stays there. Pick it up, stitch, park it again. It becomes automatic within a few minutes of use.

This design: The classic tomato pincushion, reimagined as an enamel badge – a nod to the sewing room’s most iconic tool. A favourite among makers who appreciate a bit of craft humour alongside their haberdashery.

At 30mm x 28.5mm, these sit neatly on the hoop without getting in the way. The gold-look metal backing adds a touch of warmth to the finish. Each needle minder comes packaged on a card backing in a clear cello bag – ready to give as a gift or keep for yourself.

A genuinely useful small gift for any embroiderer, hand sewist, EPP maker, or slow stitcher – and at $15.95, one of the most accessible ways to try SOHMO tools for the first time.
