my thread scraps jar

Thread passing through the eye of a dulled (from use) embroidery machine needle.

 

Handheld flash+4x8 softbox on left side and white cardboard box as reflector on right.

just organised my threads, didnt realise i had so many!

I have three of these things stuffed full of embroidery thread back from the days when I cross-stitched. Which would probably be sometime in the mid-90's. It's all ready for me to break out and use again. Although why I didn't just break it out to embroidery with is beyond me. Anyhow, it's great having all of this thread for stitching! More blogged here.

i always have thread on me, somewhere, and everyone always points it out.

 

ive always been the messy disorganised girl at school, and it changes nothing.

Luck means i get away with everything by the skin of my teeth, even carrying my family's ball and chain.

Building more thread towers.

This is an M8 stainless bolt, 40mm threaded section. I like the imperfections in the threads...you don't notice this sort of stuff until you go macro.

My absoulte favorite thread holder. Whee!!! It's marked Westcraft Plastic Products San Francisco.

Function is not clear to me.

Just a few colours from hundreds I have from Madeira, I have others too of course. Some people like me to match the pantone exactly for their design.

pentax takumar 55m F2 lens test on eos 550D. As you can see I had problems with the focus.

Its a great lens when you suss the focus!

There is no VR or IS so you need fastish shutter speeds to compensate.

 

My verdict

Build quality 10/10

You know these are very good quality as soon as you pick one up and fiddle around with it using the focus and aperture etc.

Made of metal and smooth as silk, ,make no mistake these lenses are CLASS!

 

Lens sharpness 8/10 I'm maybe denigrating it here but I did have trouble focussing the thing.

I have used taks and super taks before and I do like them

Practibility..7/10. You lose autofocus obviously and it is awkward trying to get the focus crack on.

You also need to buy an adapter. No problem at all if you dont mind it,

 

Value for money 10/10 these can be had dirt cheap secondhand on ebay.

I'd give 11 out of 10 if it were possible!

The thread that we use is unable to be broken with your bare hands. We use Nylon thread size 69 which is UVR coated to protect against the sun and the environment.

The white epoxy I used to attach the ceramic thread guide to the machine. I did something similar to my Gammill with Faststeel which only comes in steel color. When I saw the white at the hardware store, that's the color I wanted to use! I think it may have been a buck more for the white, but I am too OCD not to have gone this way.

Matching shirt and onesie for my 10 y/o and 8 week grandsons. Now, if I can just get them together for a snap of them in them before the baby outgrows it...............
