National Thread the Needle Day!

 


Today, I'm literally threading a needle in celebration of National Thread the Needle Day.  I'm currently working on out-of-print (OOP) Vogue 2571 and there has been a lot of basting and hand stitching involved.  It's worth all the hand work and time involved with this project.  Maybe in another week or so I will have more to show.  Until then carry on celebrating National Thread the Needle Day!  

Happy Sewing!
