These darkly colored smoked moosehide Athabascan mittens are around a hundred years old, and still in excellent condition. They came from the Tanana-Yukon River region of Alaska. They're made with moose, cloth, beaver fur, wool, caribou, sinew thread and trade beads made of glass. You can see the multi-colored tie-string, made of commercial yarn, that is used to keep the mittens from getting lost. A mitten is attached to each end of the string. This allows them to hang from your neck, and dangle down in front of the wearer, as if on a long, yarn scarf. The mitts' floral pattern is typical of the time, and is not filled in between the flowers. In this photograph, you can see the way that Athabascan women decorate both the underside of the thumb, and the top of the mitten. Formal displays of Alaskan Indian artwork -- like this one at the University of Alaska Museum of the North, in Fairbanks, are arranged so both sides of a pair can be viewed together. The artist of this pair of mittens is unknown.

I think that any girl who wears this beauty feels herself like on The Roof Of The World!
Absolutely terrific, delightful and truly royal splendour! Ruffle, beaded with faux pearls full bolero added with magnificent two flowers detachable corsage. Corsage has two felted flowers, on back side two pins. Felted from superfine natural white 18,5 mic pure merino and fabulous snow-white mulberry silk! Using of mulberry silk makes the bolero texture rich and sparkling!
Made from Amanda Jean Nyberg's pattern. It was fun to pick fabrics for the outside and linings.
Mod Century is the fabric (from Marmalade).

Yesterday. This snap's taken near-ish the end, as there was no time beforehand for photos as it was busy. Just one fabric pack left here - they were a hit!
I know that I did a similar ring with a poinsettia leaf a few days ago.
But I just couldn't resist to the beauty of these yellow leaves that I picked this morning!

If barn boards could talk.... held together by threads, this barn and silo hold many secrets I'm sure.....
What are they? High quality Folding Concertina Type Door. The material is folded and tensioned by a thread which runs through it.
Sizes and Colours? White aluminium cassette with grey fly screen material 130cm wide by 2100cm high, but because of the way this door works it is possible to mount one cassette at either end and they can meet in the middle to cover a doorway of up to 260cm wide.
Easy to Fit? Yes it is however adjusting for height is small (10cm) so best used at the full height. The cassette which contains the material and runs on a recessed bottom profile which although is held in place by adhesive tape should also be screwed into the floor at the opposite end to tension the string. There is also a top profile and this system is designed to fit inside a framework or a reveal. However, it possible to fit into a conventional doorway by simply fitting a L shaped plastic profile that the material pulls up to, as we have done in the pictures. Ideally it should be used at full height as it can only be adjusted by a few centimetres, whereas width is not a problem it will open up to a maximum of 130cm (260cm when you use two) and the top and bottom profiles can easily be cut to size.
Please see the instructions below.
Easy to Use? Yes. You simply pull the material from the cassette. As there is no spring involved the door never snaps back or needs to be secured with a magnet or other catch.
What you Get: Cassette containing folding material. Top Profile. Bottom Profile track. Securing Clips.
Suitable for? Domestic and commercial applications. available from www.flyscreenqueen.co.uk

The one on the bottom was eating the whole time. They flew, landed and moved around for some time while I watched and took pictures. Thread Waisted Wasp: Eremnophila aureonotata.
I bought this pine mini shelving kind of thing (it's probably got a proper name like Helga or Ivan!) from Ikea years ago, but never used it. But now I see why it's true purpose is - to hold reels of thread! ... perfect!

I've been working on hand dying grosgrain ribbon, different weights of cotton thread, and cotton fabric for the last week.
I found this pattern on Urban Threads my new favorite embroidery website!
I bought 6 patterns at Urban Threads and this is the 1st one that I have completed so far. I love what it says and I love the colors I used. I plan on framing this and placing it in my craft room. I also may display it as wallpaper on my laptop. Because Santa was good to me and bought me a light box for X-Mas I have finally gotten out of the realm of relying only on the iron on embroidery patterns. It was hand embroidered.
