whimpers

[cornerofmadness]

I'm beginning to think i'm the worst crafter in the world. I took on a very ambitious project and I knew i'd make mistakes but the ones I made were dumb lazy ones including two suddenly being too short to tie off. They weren't when i started but oops i tied off too low on one end. I'd have to literally restring the whole thing (which might take a day or more) to fix that.

But I did find out silvrethorn is right. You CAN cut through the thread with crimp beads. I don't even know how i managed it since i don't have the strength in my hand any more to completely crimp it. Also managed to slip with the crimper and crush a glass bead...right up under my finger nail. Whimper.

This thing has BEST hold together in the end.

Hey for the manga reading portion of my flist does anyone know a reliable source for publication dates? I've been looking at Amazon up until tonight when they said the pub date for a couple things is later this year and I have said books sitting on my shelf already. (read I'm really hoping I don't have to wait until august for Reload #8 and nearly a full year for Her Majesty's Dog)
