a roll of thread from my mother's sewing box. this is my first shot ever (test shot, if you will), using a technique that i just learned of the other day. to say that i feel i've opened a door to a whole new world is a great understatement. this knowledge was passed along by a fellow flickrer who has used it quite extensively. i was so impressed with the effects on her photos i had to ask her how she was doing it. reverse lens macro, was her answer. the rest as they is about to be history. i've seen it (unknowingly) applied to flowers and lots of pretty things, giving them a softness and beauty beyond description. i can't wait to apply it to so many "man" things and see what evolves. thank you fellow flickrer....i shall be forever grateful.

We needed to replace an old 1/2"-12 bolt that was missing from our Challenge guillotine cutter. (12 threads per inch is not standard, 13 is, so new 1/2"-13 bolts don't fit.) Turns out that an old British size is a suitable replacement. British Standard Wh

He used a 3D nylon sintering printer. I figured it should be able to be made by hand.
My mistake was kerfing the sticks. I did it so that I could have slots to put the strings in. Unfortunately this a) allowed the sticks to bend more then they would've otherwise, b) made it so that the strings were "split." Each colour essentially flows down two "plains" instead of one. Oh well.
shashiko thread, an option for embroidery when color is wanted. Japanese cotton that is very similar to 16 flose in size and strength. I got mine at a quilt show.
Coming across this Alexander Furnishings shop really brings back memories. My mother used to be a seamstress/ tailor and she used to make dresses. I remember as a kid, I accompanied her on many occasions (in Hong Kong) to a fashion district to buy fabrics, sewing threads, zippers and other accessories etc. Mother and I would discuss and pick out patterns of fabrics and see what fabrics would match well with each other.

I used a free pattern by All About Ami. I used cotton embroidery thread and a tiny hook instead of worsted weight yarn to get him this size.

These are hand crocheted potholders, some early and some recent, but all beautiful. I began to collect them when I found one for $2 at an antique store/flea market. I had already found a hotpad with soda pop tops crocheted in and I thought they went together. Having an inexpensive item to look for means I get to go to antique malls and look around. It's such fun.
