And I did a good job. But here I am - 46 years later and can't even thread a needle! First off I can't see the tiny hole. Now I don't need reading glasses, in fact, I can see close up very well. But I am having trouble seeing that hole. The other problem is that the nylon tread is invisible. I am using that to attach beads to Vickie's quilt. Next question - how to do knot it easliy or how do you anchor it if you aren't using knots. Then what about metalic threads. What size needle are you using, what if you need a thin eye & needle to add beads with the metalic threads. You Art Card creators or hand embroiders out there - please offer me some advise or point me to a helpful web site. Thanks guys - have a great day.
(See the quilt I am sitting on? My Grandma Dearing made that one and another one. They lasted until they fell too pieces when my son Danny was a small child. I loved those quilts. ) (Also, I still have that small red bear, same grandma gave it to me. The one next too it was given to me by my neighbor - Richard Seeno. )
