Come to that, I'll thread your needle for you. Also, I can fit you for a better needle and let you take home a needle threader for thicker threads. I'll pick two up next time I see them, mine just disappeared. The one you need looks like a flat hook. See the picture on this site.

I found the #9 a wee bit small. The #9 would be great for 2 strands of the embroidery floss. If I use Perle cotton I use the back stitch rather than the stem stitch. Try again, with the bigger needle and the back stitch. I have just started using Perle cotton the last year or so...at first I didn't care for it. Now some designs look better in the Perle cotton and the back stitch...some look better using floss and the stem stitch or the outline stitch. You did great!!

It should iron the thread and make it easier to thread the needle. sometimes trimming just doesn't work for me, but this always does. Good luck and come back to it in a bit when you've had time to be less frustrated.Emily Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10330290875191349258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428226027339134022.post-47663867706656185452013-03-21T20:19:16.906-04:002013-03-21T20:19:16.906-04:00You have the beginnings of a great project there. ...You have the beginnings of a great project there.

I tryed to thread it that way too, but my eyes are not as good as they use to be, so I went to the store a brought 3 needle threaders and thank GOD it worked out fine. I use them all the time now to thread my needle and plan to buy stock in them. :)The Slow Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11050851198391657826noreply@blogger.com
