The green embroidery you see in the bag is a pocket where all kinds of old goodies will be stored.
In the last few weeks I have spent so many days and hours immersed in children's portraits and group shots, candid expose shots of life within a classroom, band rehearsals for the school play, musicians playing, children performing and capturing it all for various different people and reasons, that it was nice to take those two lens' off the camera and pop the macro lens on and take simple, unplanned, shots of some threads left over from sewing lying beside me on the table as images downloaded onto the computer.
For me, today, it's nice to just look at something simple, not worry about exactly how in focus - or out of focus - a shot is and whether I've got the hair just right for that chid, or the essence of caterpillars walking across a stage.
Today simple and stark is just what I need.
Today, unprocessed is what I need. Straight out of camera.
Many patterns inspired this Crochet Table Runner. My biggest thread crochet so far... (Thread size 20, hook size 1.00mm)

A glass ampul containing virgin silk; an extremely fine ophthalmic suture material consisting of two to seven natural silk filaments bonded together by sericin, a natural adhesive. This ampul is dated 28-01-1964. The silk was held in the ampul to protect it from air and contaminants. To get to the silk, you had to snap of the neck of the ampul.

Mum brought 80 million serger thread cones for me. She claims to have picked only the colours she won't use out of her stash. Conveniently for me, they're some of my faves.

Background is once again my grey ironing board!
I reckon the eyes of needles have got so teeny tiny over the years :))))
I love embroidery threads. This is not a collage of my personal stash - I think I have more. Hopeless. June 29014
I got sick of having to look in boxes for my embroidery threads so I decided to re-vamp my postcard wall and have them on permanent display for easy selection.

Short video tutorial on how to make a 7 wrap thread crochet bullion stitch.
I find that three things help me in making bullion stitches:
#1: I make sure the wraps are evenly side by side against my crochet hook, snuggled together.
#2: When I yarn over, I yarn over at least 1/2 inch away from the wraps and then I pull the thread through the wraps. (the extra thread that you skip winds up in the middle of the bullion stitch)
#3: I hold the wraps gently but firmly in place with my left hand as I pull the thread and crochet hook through the middle of the bullion stitch.
Thick threads hanging from the frayed edge of upholstery fabrics in the workshop.
A big thank you to Sam from St Morris Upholsterers who let me wander freely around his workshop and shop taking these photos. See also their Facebook page St Morris Klassik.

entwined
[Threads of delicate merino wool and silk wrapped steel in vintage gold, entwined to form patterns of texture, light and transparency.
Threads interconnecting as unstructured stitches come together to create a soft metallic wrap.
Threads pulled through loops in a hazy, simplistic ritual that has soothed and calmed the mind, body and soul.
Threads of luminous magic.]
Playing with that homeless SLR lens I found again. Makes decent macros when I turn it backwards and hold it in front of my camera.
The red and white ones caught on in the 1930s through the 1950s because a colorfast red thread was created, which didn't bleed in the wash. Funny, I had clothes that bled in the 60s and 70s.
