I'm a big idiot.
I like a certain needle for sewing on my bindings. I have trouble with my hands--I know, I know...I've mentioned it a million times before--and so I like a looooong needle because it seems to make the hand sewing not so fatiguing.
You'd think I'd pay more attention then to the type of needle I was using so that I could by more?
I was a that the quilt shop and bought more needles, but they're not right. I knew they weren't right, but I bought them anyway. Milliner needles. I am an extra special idiot because I found another package of Miliners at home. I'm an extra extra special idiot because not only did I buy more of the wrong needles, but I also bought chocolate covered raisins at the quilt shop and two half yard cuts of red fabric that I didn't really need.
I went to the quilt shop to buy thread by the way!
I also am more disgusted with myself because I did all this at the quilt shop I don't really like, but have to shop since Great American Quilt Factory closed.
I'm pretty sure I've been using Beading needles. I looked online.... Back to the store I go... JoAnns this time.
The shopping is a whole other issue. It's not making me feel any better, either.
did you get the THREAD?!?
ReplyDeletethe other quilt shop - it wouldn't be CN, would it? if it is, it's no wonder you didn't get the right needles - if you got out of there without something falling on your head, you're doing good! and forget asking for HELP - i don't think any of THEM know where anything is, either!
