3.5" green center is surrounded by pastel ruffles. Doily is 5.5" in diameter.
Cotton crochet thread #10 was used.
They can be used as coasters, candle doilies or under a small vase or trinket.
I took a 33 mile long dirt road from Blue Mesa Reservoir over Blue Mesa and down into Big Blue Creek, and I did not see another vehicle on the road. But I spent 15 minutes stuck in traffic--an enormous herd of sheep. I could not see the front of the herd, or the back of it--they just kept coming, streaming across the road. I finally lost my patience, and creeped forward toward the stream of sheep, and they parted around my vehicle.
I saw the shepherd's trailer, but the shepherd was not around. I was curious to know how many sheep were in the herd that seemed to have no beginning and no end.
As the sheep entered the spruce fir forest, they broke into a series of lines, and that is when "threads of wool" came to me.
Viewing the Transamerica Pyramid through one of the pylons of the Golden Gate Bridge. Thanks to Agus for showing me the spot to capture this.
Modern weaving machines use thousands of cords to lift the warp threads of the cloth such that a pattern emerges. The machine this picture was taken from shoots the weft thread using solely air!
66418 threads Ipswich station with 4R97 Felixstowe to Tilbury Freightliner service. In a confined space Ipswich is a very busy location with passing freight,loco movements and passenger workings.
Detail of a weaving machine in a factory in Belgium that produces the finest quality single thread woven fabric. Every thread is monitored with an electrical contact. The moment one of the thousands of threads breaks, the machine stops automatically.
Recently I swapped some fabrics for colorful threads and zippers. My husband had to add two additional rows. And now I've got even more wonderful rainbow:)
All my threads, sorted into a rainbow. Hurrah!

Threading for Men, Why not, I saw this today in Watford and could not help taking a picture to share........Sony A7M2 + Sigma 105mm F/2.8, EXIF: Exp 1/200 Sec, ISO 1250, F/2.8 and FL 157mm via conversion to APS-C mode.
My needle-working skills are minimal but just up to making a minor repair to this pair of trousers. I can see close-to very well but the needle threader helps to get the cotton through the eye of the needle.
Can't buy grandmas old sterling silver thread snippers and a 100 plus year old quilt made by a great great grandmother. Coats and Clark's cotton thread still on the old wooden spools. All priceless.
This is not a screen applied to this photo. In this section of the V&A Museum, there are some metal threads attached from the ceiling to a structure underneath.
For 7DOS, unusual pov. Taken looking down at a folding colour chart (for embroidery threads) positioned on a mirror.
Made as an added extra for a swap from the scraps of the cushion I made for the PTS4.
Some thread sketching on top.
Sadly, I have seen no Thread-waisted wasps this year yet, so this photo from last year will have to suffice.

It took me months to locate a copy of this pattern for sale. It's a small leaflet called "Irish Crochet Heart Ornament". I think it's also in one of Annie's Attic's old bookmark booklets, shown with a ribbon woven down the middle of it somehow.
This book won a Pulitzer Prize in the 1980's. It's about African American women in the 1930's. It was later made into a movie starring some very big stars! The image references the title more than the content of the book.
The pink thread was found at a thrift store now being turned into tatting
