So, do you remember
this post which had this strange and rather terrifying picture?

Well, I found the person those fingers belong to! I'm not sure what to make of this picture. I'd bet that most people (at least non-sewers) think of sewing as a "wholesome" pastime, but this cover pictures something quite different. She is elegant, sexy and ... well, a bit wicked. Like she might just tear a hole in you, like she did to that cover. Then there is that strange object. It looks like a glass bottle (filled with chalk, maybe?) with a red plastic cap and a long rod attached to it. I can't think what it is for, and a cursory look through the book doesn't explain it. What do you think?
