This sequin pinafore dress which I bought from St Luke's is too small, too tight and the light colour doesn't flatter my full figure. Also I don't wear backless tops. However, when I lifted it up and the top fell down over the skirt, I thought, I have to sew up the horizontal hem and I have a large sequined evening bag I found a thread of matching colour, although by turning it inside out to sew, the thread which I used did not notice from the outside. Button thread would have been stronger. I doubled the thead, tying a knot at the end. I started my sewing and had to leave it to go out for the evening. When I came back to sew next morning, I wondered, where is the needle? Often I can't find the needle. It has fallen inside the folded fabric. I only find it when I accidentally prick myself. Annoying. Scary. Worse still, I lose it. I look on the floor, the chair. I have to thread another needle. Delay. But this time I found the solution to the lost needle problem....
