Hello! Thank you David for the tally video! As much as I like the economy of movement of the "Brioude way", I don't think I could hold the bobbins between my fingers because of the permanent crook in my repaired my right ring finger. Your pins & plastic seem like helpful tools to me so will give it a try. Loved the ivory piece, hankie perhaps? Shall I send my address privately? It would get top billing in my embroidered linen hankie folder!! Jeri, thanks for reminding us of the importance of a laying tool. This is the reason so many x-stitch pieces look untidy! Two threads over two gets yukky quick! I've resolved that by working 1 over 1 on high count linen--too lazy to frame up a small piece. While I end up with miniatures, & not all patterns are suitable, the result is sort of a petit-point appearance that is quite engaging. As to the aficot/afficot, I can see there should be one of each in my tool box! Hmmm, will check with my knitty friends as something "perf orated" & "boxwood" sounds intriguing & could be helpful when I need that "3rd hand" when I'm knitting. Sincerely, Susan in Erie, PA where I'm still working on glow-in-the-dark pillowcases for a quilt guild fundraiser
