No I don't. I have an idea to make them but wondered if many people like them before I put in the effort.

Perhaps you have ideas of going into production on one, and wondered if it would be saleable? or?

I personally wouldn't use one because I would hand my scissors around my neck and then the next time I would need to use them I would spend HOURS looking for them! Kinda like putting a pencil behind your ear and then forgetting where you put it! lol

nope not me. I use the neck to hang my glasses. While this is covenant, they get pretty screwed up and they eat as much as I do. LOL I can't see up close so I have to keep them handy but if I look away all I see is a blur so they hang there most of the time just collecting what ever comes their way and then when I need to see I just give them a wipe and put them on.

I have Several Chatelaine's, and some are fancy and some plain. I wear one every time I sew. I love them. they all hold different things so I wear the one that I need for that sewing.Have a lovely one made by a friend for me , and she used a pink silk tie, EMBELLISHED and it is gorgeous. Also wear finger pin cushions, especially when I am Binding a quilt. CMARAS

No- I get hung up on everything. I can't even wear a watch because it catches even on the edge of the machine at the worst possible moment of free handing and I get a flub. Even have had to go to a solid wedding band. Over the years I had the head on my diamond retipped and repalced 4 times in under 12 years which now has been sitting in a jewelry box waiting once again for a reapair for the last 11 years. I figure it's due to fact I am left handed and am constantly working at something- that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
