bad workman or his tools

while I was edging the patchwork pincushions I remembered a hook I had seen that was designed to do exactly what I was doing

I ordered one and it came today

it certainly has a sharp end!!!

but it isn't for the type of fabric I'm using at the moment

no matter how I try to get it through it either won't go or it gets caught on the way back

and it ripped the thread and pulled it

so glad I tried on a scrap first

brain must be functioning for a change!!! 

so I'll go back to the old fashioned way of starting the edge

with a needle and thread and the blanket stitch

I am sure that I will use the new hook at some point

find the perfect thing

bbbbbbbbbooooooooooooooo!!!!

found these on the camera

the last one was the last temp recorded before the storms came through and cleared it out

:{

do you draw things you're trying to make

I wasted some fabric trying to remember how to make a 

log cabin block

I was close

but as they say

t'was no cigar

so I drawed it!!!

:):):)

 and now I can do it

well I'll do it once I finished the

patches

patch patch patch

hope all are well

see you around the interwebs peoples
