Suzanne has introduced a new topic in the Needlepoint World: odd stitching habits.

I've been trying to think what I do that is unusual. I suppose my love of a trolley needle for laying threads is considered odd in some quarters. A lot of people worry about poking their eyes on with that thing. Never even occurred to me to worry although it never occurred to me to poke it into the margins of my canvas, either. I park mine on my needle magnet or the table instead.

After stabbing myself in the leg with my regular laying tool, I retired it. I use a trolley needle for almost everything. I only haul out the lethal weapon if I need that sharp point to hold something in place.
OUCH! Hope that healed quickly, Karen.
I've been on vacay and it was fun to come back and get to read this fun blog post! Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season and that 2013 is the BEST ever! I'll be back to posting soon. XOXO, Suzanne
Thanks, Suzanne. Hope you had a lovely relaxing vacation. I'm still catching up on emails from my time away at Christmas-New Year's!
