Just a quick one today and I thought of the old saying "A stitch in time saves nine" and I thought I would try to use it somehow.

Not much colour here so a simple black and white conversion seemed the way to go.

I use this glass darning needle to weave in the yarn tails at the end of a knitting project. This task is my least favorite part of knitting, so I decided to make it more enjoyable with a beautiful darning needle. It is handmade, of glass!

For BDCC monthly challenge - At home -still life - Contemplate a familiar object and give it your own spin. Work with controlled light to demonstrate shape and form.

I haven't done much high key lately. For this I used a tripod to enable me to keep the ISO low and not worry about the shutter speed. I used natural light with a window to the right and reflector to the left.

Sewing machine in action, sewing face masks at home.

These thimbles belonged to my Grandmother; the one on the right is very battered and worn with several holes. Judging by the damage it looks like punctured fingers from sewing were a routine hazard even with a thimble!...Ouch!!!

My grandfather worked with these tools for the Detroit

Department of Transportation repairing torn seats on Street Cars and Buses in Detroit, 1920-1950's).

Threading the needle took longer than taking the picture. Eyes! Not what they used to be!
