KNOT!

When I hand-quilt, I am constantly needing to put new thread in the needle and tie a knot. I was so excited when I took a hand-piecing class and our teacher, Candy, taught us how to tie a knot in the thread in a whole new way. It's quick and easy, and anyone can do it. I told her that was worth the price of the class right there. (We learned a lot of other cool stuff, too.) I've demonstrated the knot technique for you on this video. Get out some thread, a needle, and a pair of scissors, and you'll see for yourself how easy it is.

Duh! How easy is that, and why haven't I already figured that out? Really cool tip.

I've been sewing for over 50 years. Wish I had known this sooner! What a neat idea.
