July 25 is not just a day of celebration for sewers and sewing. Threading the Needle Day also celebrates the metaphorical meaning of the term “thread the needle,” or to walk a fine line between two issues or to find yourself in that awkward place between two friends in an argument. Hopefully you don’t find yourself there today, but if you do, navigate yourself out of the middle and, if you make it out without a scratch, celebrate with some sewing.
Did you know that “thread the needle” is also the name of a yoga pose? Thread the Needle is great for stretching the shoulders, arms, upper back, and neck. Try it out!
