You are a genius!!!!!!! Love the tip.

[@catkinandlillie]

Thanks so much and I'm glad it was helpful 😊

[@mamitaz3833]

OMG that is so funny 😂😂😂 I have been playing & winning if I do say so myself. The way I get that last stich in I put my needle 🪡 on the next hold, pull the piece of tread with the needle threader and completely pull it out 😅😅and done, until there is nothing left.

[@catkinandlillie]

Winning thread chicken is the best! Someone else said they use the needle threader to help; such a great idea!

[@shadowbroker4619]

😆 “Thread chicken”, I love that. I play that all the time and have gotten very good at winning. I never thought to do what you do though, that’s so much better than what I do! Thanks for the new tool in my arsenal 😊

[@catkinandlillie]

Well that's fab that you've been winning thread chicken anyway but glad I could show you another technique too 😊

Great and easy tip Kat. All I need now is how to win thread chicken with my machine bobbin.

[@catkinandlillie]

Ah...don't think I am any help with your machine 😂

[@joyousinchrist2490]

This is one of the best tips I’ve heard. I’ve already used it. Thank you!

[@catkinandlillie]

Yes!! I'm so glad to hear you put this to use immediately 😊

[@DeniseDevenny-dz5ut]

I try not to put myself in this position but managed to miscalculate just the other day. Thankfully I had just watched your video and used this handy tip to finish my last two stitches. Thank you so much for positing this!!

[@catkinandlillie]

Avoiding being in this position is definitely preferable, but I'm glad this video popped up just at the right time to help you out 😄

[@janetrcrossstitch]

Great tip, thanks for sharing.

[@catkinandlillie]

Your'e welcome 😊

[@musketeersplus2]

I usually use my needle threader as the loop & that way I don't need to involve a needle to finish the stitch. Running it under the back I'll push the needle part way then use the needle threader to feed it through the eye.

[@catkinandlillie]

Funnily enough I wondered if using a needle threader would work the same way, but ended up not testing or including that because I don't actually have any needle threaders and I figured not everyone would have one...but it's a great option 👍😄

[@mamitaz3833]

Sounds like what I do!! Didn't know till now it had a name😂❤

[@loriclarke2931]
