One of my three (haha, addicted?) embroidery floss boxes.
I have mild OCD so playing with my floss is a harmless way for me to indulge myself. I like to rearrange them by numerical order, and then into a rainbow by colour. It's very soothing to play with the spools (bobbins? cards?), and almost meditative to wind the floss onto the cards.
I also get a lot of inspiration just by playing with colour combinations.
( Edited with Picnik because I love rounded corners. )
Couldn't quite get the exposure right with the bright spots roving around, but I loved how she looked in the pink light with the pink candy floss.
She's nearing her completion stage so thought I'll just fool around a little and did this little picture of her. So here...I give you... Strawberry FlossFace - Berry flavored hair floss topped with some Sweet Mischiefs and a little dash of sparkles. :)
Took a few crap photos this evening, then my eyes fell on the floss and I thought it might just work.

Me : “Ricky?? Have you seen the embroidery floss that I bought??"
Ricky : “...no.."
Me : “What is on your feet?? Is that my floss??!"
Ricky : “..no.. It's not floss anymore.. It's slippers! I made slippers! And I didn't even use a pattern!!"
Me : “..wow.. No pattern, you say?! I find that hard to believe.." {{eyeroll}}
Ricky : “I'm taking orders if you want a pair.. We'll need more floss.."
Me : “Yeeeaaahhh.. Nope. I'm good."
Woooooosh, another project.. Its not a tending topic for the 52.. It just happend..
But i need to admit i ADORE these kinda challenges, to think about something and to come up with something.. fooking love it!! Keep them comming!! hahahhaha
This is for the Red Line Project, the idea is to connect all photgraphers over the world by a red line..
It needs to enter to the left and leave to the right, and what happens in between? Thats your choise ;D and needs to be a selfie...
For me was it easy, my dog does act like a cat most of the time, also when i was knitting back then..
I cursed to her once that one day she will even poo a knotted one!
Soooo this was fun fun fun fun, and the red line enters doggie back, to come out miracles clean at her mouth.. ( yeah i still have childish poo humor, cant help it, makes me laugh uncontrolled these kinda jokes! )
It would be more fun if others join this project.. to get 2012 contrubutions from 100 countrys is the goal, i challenge you!! hahahahaha!!
( I know, photo technical not the best, but you ever did try to make a dog play and keep her quiet at the same time incl a remote to hide??? This is just pure pooooohoooo fun ;D )
And for the rest? It fooking snowed!!! Wooohoooo!!!

Stitched this up in a cute little 3" hoop for my parents' 37th wedding anniversary. Hands are stem and outline stitched with a single strand of floss, words are backstitched two strands, heart is chainstitched with two strands. A tiny token of my love for them.

this may be the coolest embroidery tool ever.
since I plugged their floss in my book, DMC sent me a package of embroidery goodies, including this amazing color chart of all their colors done up in actual floss! I've been wanting one of these for years. no more keeping all those little numbered wrappers.
