[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday

[carcione at access.net]

Hi Becky.

My phone doesn't have a cover, just a light case with bumpers.  Maybe your
cover is magnetic.  

I have an iPhone SE also, 3rd gen.  I bought it last summer.

You are kidding. Do you have a heavy protective case, like a wallet type. I
just have a cover I can put credit cards in. Also mine is an SE 2022. Wonder
if the later models are not magnetic. The magnetic closure sticks to the
case. The tweezers stick to the lower part of this phone. The scissors stick
to the lower part of the phone. Can't find my sewing needles right now.

Hi Becky.  I tested my iPhone, and it's not magnetic.  It's interesting that
your phone is.

You might be right about the wide sleeve.  There doesn't seem to be any
image in the file I downloaded, at least so far as I can tell.

If it is a metal needle, your magnetic iPhone may be of some help. Give it a
try before you lose that needle again. I pulled my iPhone out of my bag and
attached stuck to it was my tweezers.

 

I am wondering if that thirteen inches might be like an angel sleeve. They
are low with plenty of extra material like a dropped armhole type of thing.

It's Successful Saturday!  Have you started or finished a project, or
achieved a goal?  Share it with us and we'll celebrate with you.

 

I finished my kumihimo flat braided bracelet.  It came out nice.  I put a
loop on one end and sewed a nice button to the other end to close the
bracelet.  I used variegated rainbow-colored cord and a pale blue button. 

I think it would be a nice bracelet for a young person, though I've been
wearing it myself and like it.  It's light and dainty. 

Now I'm working on the same bracelet but with beads.  Putting the beads on
the strings is a bit of a chore, since the holes aren't big enough to handle
the string doubled on a needle.

 

Oh, and I dropped a needle, but I found it, after a lot of searching.
Needles hide when they're dropped.
