My epiphany!

OMG! Its been like 3  weeks since I have posted on here! Shame, shame, shame, Emma *smacks back of wrist* Haha! I have been uber busy lately (and uber stressed out) and my internet was cut off for a while, and I could use the internet at work (like what I am doing now..) but I had just lost some motivation but now Ima get off my high horse, suck up my problems and get on with life!!!
While beading a bracelet here today - Yes, I said I was at work, I bead when I am bored and finished all of my work ;) lol - I got this HUGE knot in my thread.. Now I don't know if I have mentioned this already, but I HATE ending and finishing new thread! Not what you thought I was going to say was it? Haha! Anyways, I would rather sit here with my needle and knot and work at unpicking it, than have to cut, end and start again..

I am usually pretty good at unpicking my knots from thread, as I have been doing it for so long, but THIS ONE however was a doosy! I had to put it down for an hour and then go back to it otherwise I probably would have thrown it. I finally got the knot out and then went to continue beading when I realised something..

Anyone remember my rant about my bendy needles???

This perfectly straight needle that I had started the project with was now all bendy with kinks in it.. NOW I KNOW WHERE THEY COME FROM!!! And it kinda bums me out that its my fault - coupled with the fact that it could have easily been avoided is just downright depressing.

Note to self: Knot = Bad.. and really.. they aren't worth the hassle!

  1. Emma, I am the same way I would rather pick at the knot then end and start again. I hope you were able to get the knot out ok.
