I'll admit that I do very little hand sewing, but... I'm completely on-board with betweens. They're great for doing running stitch; since they're shorter there's less drag from the needle. I've been working my way through a big pack of vintage betweens with flat-ground eyes (much like suture needle eyes) and I'll be very disappointed when I get to the last one and have to start using new ones. andy ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
