Oooh! I like that idea too!
This is a "double needle" not a "double-eye needle" but the effects of a double needle are really nice too. They look really nice when you are doing cross-hatching. The double eye needle is just one needle with two eyes so the two threads sew one on top of the other.
Ohhh...thanks for the clarification. Guess I was reading things wrong. Some of the posts make more sense now. That's what happens when multi-tasking. I was watching The Closer. :)
I still like that idea :wink:
