Beeswax!



Why, oh why have I never known about beeswax for hand sewing??? I tried it for the first time today and talk about night and day. The one thing that has always annoyed me with hand sewing is that the thread stays tangled more than not with me. But no more! Pulling that thread through the beeswax really does keep it from tangling. Joy! I love it when something simple makes my life easier, don't you?

And once again, I have blogs to thank for my new knowledge. I really don't remember which smart lady told me about it via her blog, but I did buy some beeswax before Christmas. I just never got around to using it till now.
Who knew?

This is what you get when you tell (oh, all right - yell at) two big dogs to "Go to bed!", but only one kennel door is open.
