How lovely to be back...
Although to start off my year of creative spaces, I am sharing a frustrating moment.
I was THIS (imagine finger and thumb not very far apart) far from finishing - yes I mean finishing - my latest project. When one of the needles on my twin needle broke...
Just like that.
Very calmly, I managed to make it to my local haby store to pick up a replacement (plus a few other bits and pieces - making it worth the trip). But I was not impressed. Now the challenge of finding the time to finish it.
Head on over to our lovely My creative space host Kirsty at Kootoyoo for (hopefully) less frustration, more construction.

How annoying! Not too much construction going on here at the moment just lots of earth moving & levelling...argh.
ReplyDeleteBummer - perhaps we'll see it next week? Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThat's bad. looking forward to see the project next week!
ReplyDeleteGrrrr! I hope you got 2 ;) xox
ReplyDeleteWow, you stayed calm? Well done! Hope you find the time to finish it.
ReplyDeleteSee, I may or may not have kicked something.
ReplyDeleteAnd then hurt my toe to make things worse.
That elusive time ... I hope you find where you left it and can get your project done.
ReplyDeleteOh bum! I hope the time to finish it finds you soon.
ReplyDeleteArrrgh!! Knowing me, at this stage I'd put it away somewhere because I was so huffy and never finish it. But I suspect you're more mature than me (most people are....!) so you'll probably finish it when you find a spare 30 minutes?!? Like that'll be easy....
ReplyDeleteoooh - I hate it when a needle breaks. This is why I never seem to finish projects!
ReplyDeleteIt's always the way, isn't it? Glad you were able to get a new one so quickly... At least it'll all be ready and waiting for you when you have the time to get back to it. K
ReplyDeleteThat is so annoying and sooooo typical! Grrrr! I usually find the bobbin thread runs out just as I'm about an inch from finishing a line of stitching!
ReplyDeleteI know your pain!!! That sort of thing happens to me all the time. No hobby, sewing, etc.... within 35 miles of me, though!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is SOOOOO frustrating when that happens Pam. Did you buy 2 needles... to have a backup for next time? Yes, that is experience talking!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the finishing...
Guh. Buh. Twin needles? Clearly unchartered waters for me. Sigh. I hope you get to and finish it though... then you'd better model it! Whatever it is :-)
ReplyDeletethe only thing worse than breaking a needle is when it takes your eye out as it snaps. ouchie
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to know this sort of thing happens to other people & not just me :)
