Clover Soft-Touch Thread Pick

I have wanted a Clover Soft-Touch Thread Pick since Craftsy instructor Cindy Needham recommended it in her Design It, Quilt It class.

I finally got one and finally got to use it!  The thread pick is perfect for me since it's designed for long-arm quilters AND machine embroidery.  It is used for hiding or removing stray threads and slips easily between fabric layers.  It has a long, narrow handle and a long neck with a tiny hook at the end.  It's also great for pulling up the bobbin thread - grabbing that loop with the little hook is so easy!

I now have the 3 tools Cindy loves: the Pin Place, the wonderful Janome curved snips, and this thread pick.  I love them all too - especially now that I am using the quilting frame and doing machine embroidery.  They are all excellent tools to help with these crafts!
