Oh, man! Those big plastic needles bring back memories! I LOVE your running stitch project. Too cool! You always have the best ideas! I am officially your groupie! ; )
It's cute, and very clever. I have lots of those needles around for stitching involved with my knitting/crochet. I never thought to use them like this!
that's awesome, i hope you hang it up somewhere!
You've reminded me that I have been meaning to pick up one of those needles for the Jack attack. Good to see it works!
You just come up with the best ideas - I love your running stitch project! I have those instructions all over my vintage patterns too. NEVER thought to use them like that. How neat!
Thanks for the embroideries too, so so sweet! I really got away from hand embroidery when I got my machine, but I'm getting back into it now and these are on my list to do!
i love those patterns! sooo cute!
