1. How do you hold your fabric? I go rouge and hold it with my hands alone.
ReplyDelete2. Floss licker? Yes please.
3. How do you thread your needle? Squinting one eye, but Gina from Stitcher's Paradise taught me to wrap it around my finger and run the eye over the thread to catch it. Someday.
4. What needle do you like best? Tapestry, size 28 (I think) in the yellow package
5. Are you a needle loser? NEVER! I'm too afraid it will end up in a kitten paw.
6. What fabric do you prefer to stitch on? 32ct Lugana. I like 40ct better but it will be the death of me!
7. Bobbins or floss bags? Large projects = bobbins, Small projects = bags
8. Are you a scissors collector? NO, I get distracted by all the floss and fabric I need to buy.
9. Do you do your own framing, and if so, do you lace or pin? No, but if I did I think I would try both.
10. Are you a floss floozy? Who told you!
11. Silk? Sadly yes. I told myself if I did Shores of Hawk Run Hallow in DMC I would get to do the Village of HRH in silk! I should start saving now!
12. Railroader? What is it? Sounds inappropriate.
13. Are you a pattern or designer snob? On occasion, I started with and favor Mirabilia.
14. Do you get antsy when you give someone a stitched gift? No, The Crone always picks them out so I know she will like them!
15. Have you reached S.A.B.L.E.? Possibly, I am young...
16. Do you wash your projects? Never, I am too impatient.
1. How do you hold your fabric? Gotta have the scroll frame.
ReplyDelete2. Floss licker? Yeppo.
3. How do you thread your needle? Lick, squint, and pray.
4. What needle do you like best? I have this one that is bent all to hell.
5. Are you a needle loser? Nope. I just keep using my bent one.
6. What fabric do you prefer to stitch on? 32ct overdyes.
7. Bobbins or floss bags? I like the new floss bags I found with two rings.
8. Are you a scissors collector? No, I am a scissor misplacer, ergo I have a large scissor collection by default.
9. Do you do your own framing, and if so, do you lace or pin? I haven't tried.
10. Are you a floss floozy? not officially
11. Silk? Yes, please.
12. Railroader? What is it? Sounds inappropriate. I agree.
13. Are you a pattern or designer snob? I like to think not, but I do find myself gravitating to the same designers.
14. Do you get antsy when you give someone a stitched gift? Nope.
15. Have you reached S.A.B.L.E.? Not yet.
16. Do you wash your projects? No! I'm terrified I will ruin all of my hard work.

1. How do you hold your fabric? Using the scroll but the new snap frame seems to be working really well.
ReplyDelete2. Floss licker? Every chance I get...eeewww.
3. How do you thread your needle? With big ole' jewelers glasses so I MIGHT be able to see the hole.
4. What needle do you like best? I have a whole pile of 26's and 28's (probably the 28).
5. Are you a needle loser? Yes...I lose them all the time, thus accounting for many bad pricks in my life.
6. What fabric do you prefer to stitch on? 28 count (Can't be a snob for 32 or 40 no sense in looking for something I can't see).
7. Bobbins or floss bags? I'm the bag with the bags.
8. Are you a scissors collector? No, I am a scissor misplacer, ergo I have a large scissor collection by default. (Same answer as the Mother-exactly!)
9. Do you do your own framing, and if so, do you lace or pin? I've cheated with using really good book tape-so bad I know.
10. Are you a floss floozy? I would say NO DOUBT. I will have to turn my attention next to Anchors-that is after I replace ALL the DMC's for about the 3rd time in my life.
11. Silk? Hate the cost, like the look.
12. Railroader? Too anal for this go round.
13. Are you a pattern or designer snob? I do look up all my new potential patterns via Designer..so I guess I qualify.
14. Do you get antsy when you give someone a stitched gift? I actually love it and hope they have an appreciation.
15. Have you reached S.A.B.L.E.? Of course-actually the Maiden and the Mother will have to split up the goods when I either can't see to stitch at all any more, or disappear from the planet.
16. Do you wash your projects? Why do that?
OK-my job is done...The Crone
