Sorry, I didn't know what date in advance (I was expecting an e-mail about it). She was going to be on two shows, so check Carol Duvall's page on HGTV.com for the date of the second show.
Carol admits that she's never done counted cross stitch. Gee, and I thought Carol had done everything!
Of course, SGD cannot go anywhere without gadgets, and today's show-and-tell was a scissor point protector with a beaded leash attached to the fingerhole.
I thought that was Martha :*}}}}}}}} Lucille
Mill Hill had kits for these a few years back. Nifty things.

They are dead easy to make! Let me know if any one wants directions! you don't need much and I'd bet dollars to donuts that most of us have the makings!
Cheryl
The beaded leash is easy, but what do you use for the point protector?
Theresa
Would the rubber things you put on the ends of knitting needles work?

A knitting needle protector. Like this:
That's exactly what I use! Stick a flat head pin in the point protector and pull it through. Then make a loop to attach your leash!
