Use needle and thread (3)
I believe the answer is:
sew
'use needle and thread' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for sew that I've seen before include "Stitch with needle and thread" , "Use a needle and thread" , "Tack" , "Work with needle and thread" , "Fasten with needle and thread" .)
