Sharon, Thank you. I had used a dry erase board, but after adding the second machine, it got alittle confusing at times. lol. I know someone who places colored dots above the needle numbers on the AMAYA cover. Haven't tried that one yet. I have also tried the finger nail polish, but didn't like that.

I am attaching my sheet for you.

I am looking for a better, easier way to keep track of my needles. I currently use colored markers and color the shank of the needles depending on point type and size.
