Hello, friends especially needleworkers!

Finally the monk's cloth i ordered to start punch needle is coming, so i am so excited and i can't wait to try it. The texture of the monk cloth is like aida for cross stitch but it was a bit thicker but really soft. I like it when i hold it. It is soft and smooth, plus it had natural color. I love the texture, how soft and a bit fluffy.

Now let me tell you how I finally could put the thread in its’ needle. The needle that the pen had had a hole in its’ center. And on my first attempt, I put off the cap on the top first. Then with the help of the wire (I pulled it through the top hole to the bottom one). Then after the thread going inside, I pulled through the other hole in the needle to get some of it through this eye hole. Damn, I got it wrong haha I cannot put the cap on right now huh..

Then my second attempt, I didn’t open the cap, I pulled through the thread with the wire to the body of the pen. Same thing I did put the thread into the eye of the needle with the other wire help. Ta da, I could make it through the night hahah LOL, I felt so relieved.

OMG I can’t wait to try it. Punch it on the cloth (on the embroidery hoop), then put the tail to the back and I tried to make a simple stitch, like a line. It worked well, but I didn’t love the back and I think I should try other technique cause I can’t wait to make my own punch needle doll. But how do you think, what first project should I make?

Stay tuned for me!
