*Gadget Corner the return of "To the Point" of Needlework!
The most critical and often overlooked tool in a needleworkers box is the needle. Liz reviews some types of needles and why the size and style of the needle is important to a stitcher. She showed the range of needles from Tapestry size 22 to Tapestry size 28 in two lengths - Petite and Standard. (Several manufacturers were mentioned).
The entire Gadget Corner that focused upon needles can be seen on the following video...

Liz shared a finish - Bobbin - Animal Crackers pattern by Stacy Nash
She used a tall spool and a chop stick to finish the little Mouse...she sits atop of a tall spool that Deb gave Liz.
