I have a question regarding doing fillings in honiton. Where you have a piece that is surrounded by a rib which faces in both directions how do you do the sewings for the filling? One side is okay because you have the regular pin hole so that you can make a sewing into the side bars as well as the edge threads, but where you have to do a sewing and the ribbed edge is to the filling how do you make the sewings? Do you sew around the rib or do you sew over the rib and into the pin hole threads? Hope that is clear enough to understand where I am coming from. I am still catching up on my digests after being away last weekend and having connection problems but I did read about using hackle pliers for broken threads. What do you do if the thread breaks too close to the work to attach anything to it, other than undoing your work. Is it okay just to hang in another bobbin when you are doing a rib and a passive thread breaks? Janice
