Abstract
The present invention discloses an apparatus for organizing magnetic objects such as paper clips and needles accessible within a workstation area without being within the motor path of the work being performed, such as sewing machine needles being magnetically held to an accessible portion of a sewing machine without being within the normal path of hand movement. The apparatus is comprised of a pliable planar magnetic layer having an optional top adhesive layer and bottom adhesive layers whereby the magnetic apparatus can be selectively positioned or repositioned on any vertical, horizontal or curved magnetic and/or non-magnetic surface . A protective element or hook and loop material covers the bottom adhesive layer and a top layer may be provided having an indicia thereon, such as the company logo. A raised border may also be provided around the periphery of the present invention
