NeedleGrip-It – For easy needle handling: Give your fingers a little more traction for hand sewing, quilting, cross-stitch and more. These dots are soft and flexible, like adding a second, soft plastic layer of skin. Just stick these dots to your thumb and any fingers you use to pull or push needles. Their special adhesive will keep them securely in place, even through hand washing. You’ll stitch more quickly and comfortably all day long. I have a friend that says she can reuse her dots. Each package has 70 dots.

Click the image to see how I used one to hang a shop banner. I was very impressed with how easy it was. I later removed the plate and adhesive strips from the painted wall just to make sure it wouldn't damage the wall or paint. Easy as pie, no problems. You can't tell anything was every on the wall.

Magnet-Ficent - The Invisible Quilt Hanger - allows you to easily, securely support your quilt for display with no visible means of support! The system uses a small mounting plate attached to your wall using removable adhesive strips. Powerful, specially designed magnets securely hold your quilt to the plate via the adjustable metal rod inserted into your quilt’s rod pocket. Hang quilts up to 20" with included rod, or use a longer rod for larger quilts. Add an additional kit to hang queen and king size quilts.  It’s easily adjustable – just slide the magnet! Remove, re-hang, or change your displayed quilt with no hassle and no damage to the wall or fabric. No Tools are needed. Hang quilts 10" to 48" and beyond. The powerful magnets provide secure holding and easy leveling. No more push-pins, screws, nails, or levels.
