I just tried it through the needle last night, and it saved me a ton of time! (Depends on your machine, whether you can thread bobbins through the needle or not.)I also try to keep more "paper" scissors on hand to prevent my good shears walking away. My Little Mochi had a wonderful translation pdf for Japanese craft books, and basic construction terms & directions. Very useful if you don't know which piece is "head" and which is "body"!!!
