Day 26 on September 27 #commonthreadedstitcher: Favorite Needle Minder. So I tried to catch up back in August, but failed miserably. LOL!! So I figured I’d catch up for September, but already a day late. SMH!! Anyway, I am obsessed with my #needleminders which is why I wanted to share them all with you. I found out about these wonderful little gems back in 2014 and promptly started my collection. As a #zookeeper, of course, my first needle minder was a tiny little owl from @wintonjunction on @etsy. But my best find of all, being a #sealiontrainer and working with #marinemammals for over 21 years now was this amazing jeweled #sealion needle minder from @gecko_rouge on #etsy. I give a lot of my money to @silvermoonsewing cause she always has stuff I love, but the “rabbits doing it” needleminder became one of my favorites when I was principle keeper at @thequeenszoo working with a New England Cottontail #Rabbit conservation program where we bred and released this almost #endangeredspecies. Also, here’s a picture of my collection (minus my #Hogwarts crest which I’m said to say is missing). #zoo #zoolife #zoolifestyle #zookeepersofinstagram #crossstitch #crossstitchersofinstagram #crosstitcher #zalophuscalifornianus #Tytojavanicastertens #needle #needleknack @keabeequilting @tech_guy_in_the_hive @pgsoap @scschaffner @houseofstitchandstash @quirksandstitches @cooter_onalog @snugharborcrafts #crossstitcher #crossstitchersofinstagram #stitcher #crossstitch #crossstitching #stitchyfriends #stitchyfriendsarethebest #crossstitchaddict (at West New York, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/B28JGOhJVp4/?igshid=l0td2odmuh1b
