Always Teaching

Always Teaching

Monday is a great day to get a pedicure. No one much thinks they need pretty nails for Tuesday. Since the salon was very quiet I thought I would have a very relaxing time needlepointing while my feet where pampered.

Since it was slow and quiet the man who was doing my feet must have been bored. He took a great interest in what I was working on. He want me to teach him how to needlepoint, while I wanted him to make my heels soft. The two did not exactly go together, but I showed him how to stitch while he sanded.

His favorite trick was learning how to thread the needle without trying to stuff the fiber in the eye. After a little lesson he asked me if they sold needlepoint at Walmart. I told him I saw not exactly sure, but that I got mine from Chapel Hill Needlepoint.

I know more and more men are needlepointing, but I am not sure this guy is going to show up at Nancy’s and pick out a project. He definitely has the dexterity to handle the needle. He did a great job on my toes, but my heels are still dry. Really not his fault.
