Push the Needle, Not the Thread

If you struggle with your eyesight then probably one of your least favorite tasks in the sewing process is to thread the needle. It can take an endless amount of time and so many attempts. Some people give up because the task is just too difficult. However, if you need a little bit of help, then you can consider pushing the needle eye toward the thread instead of the other way around (which is more common).
