The Clover desk needle threader will solve that problem!

You may have something there, we had the same mother. I love your little baby, I have one that looks just like him or her.

WIP - work in process
PIG - projects in grocery bags

That is what I heard.

For those of us who are just getting started (please forgive me) what are WIP's and UFO's. Acronyms are not good for newbies at least not this one, I don't understand them all. Is there an abrevation guide somewhere that can help? Thanks

I fall in the with the rest. I think unless it is something I HAVE to get done, I would rather have a few things going at once; it gives a little interest. I seem to get bored easily these days so I am always looking at new projects. I do try to keep the WIPs at a minimum and discipline myself though, sometimes it just does not work.
