Needles

Taken from Whimsy Loft

I did home science in secondary school and despite getting an A I can now hardly thread a needle without pricking my finger and swearing a little. I've a blouse with a safety pin on it for the last 3 years. That'll give you an accurate idea of what a poor needle woman I am.

Oddly enough, I have a plan to do a spot of cross stitch this Christmas break. I bought the set in Jakarta and it's small ( yay) and looks easy enough to finish in a week if I sew diligently through the day. Other great plan is to paint….and I hope that works too. Oh yes and in between all that, I promise I would practice my scales and arpeggios on a daily basis with EVERY note at the correct pitch.  Now that's a lot of work to do!
