Take your sewing thread and pass it through the small hole in the bottle cap. Gently pull the thread so that it goes through the eye of the needle.
The bottle cap will act as a guide, making it easier to see where the thread is going and ensuring it fits right into the eye of the needle.
Trim the Thread:
Once your needle is threaded, pull the thread tight to ensure it’s securely in place.
If necessary, trim the excess thread to the desired length, and you’re ready to sew!
Why This Trick Works:
The small hole in the bottle cap gives you better control over the thread and needle, especially if you’re working with fine threads or small needles. It’s also a great method for those who struggle with threading needles due to shaky hands or poor eyesight.
Tips:
If you have a hard time seeing the eye of the needle, consider using a magnifying glass or placing the cap in front of a bright light to make the process easier.
You can make a few bottle cap guides and keep them handy for all your sewing projects.
Now, you’ll never have to waste time or get frustrated trying to thread a needle again! Keep this trick in your sewing toolkit for a smooth, stress-free sewing experience.
