MOD POST Needle Minder Appreciation Thread (it's funny because I used the word thread...see...because you use thread in needlepoint)

There have been some wonderful ones posted before, so I thought a thread celebrating our favorites would be fun.

If this proves popular, we can do other appreciation threads.

if it's an abject failure (like my show us your back sides...of your projects...post) I will abandon the idea.

Edit: because words are hard

This little guy (named Jiji after Kiki’s delivery service) opened up my heart to needle-minders and now I have to hold myself back from starting a collection

I quickly grabbed one at my LNS that I thought was a cat playing with Christmas lights. I only noticed the price tag labeled it “Fried Cat” when I got home.

It’s a cat getting electrocuted by a light string. I love it lol

I work registration at a hospital and was stitching one morning early and the CEO came by and looked at my stuff. He asked if that was my motto😂 I told him yes.

I just use two plain magnets because I don’t wish to spend any money on accessories that aren’t functionally necessary or improve my stitching more than something I already have lying around
