Wednesday 13 March 2013: Hanging by a thread...
I went to visit one of our local garden centres this morning. (I drove down the lane where I captured the ice sculptures yesterday, and they are still there, despite the warmer weather today.) I wasn't looking for anything in particular but ended up having a wander around browsing the wide variety of goods they now seem to sell. I ended up buying some lovely wrapping paper and hologram cards which I shall use later to create some bokah backgrounds. In the craft section I spotted this lovely display of coloured threads which was almost perfect, apart from the fact that colour 656 had sold out. So this is my blip for today, 'Perfection - hanging by a thread'.
Eyebrow threading is generally considered to be one of the safest methods of brow grooming. It's especially suitable for those who struggle with folliculitis or post-wax breakouts. We provide the best treatment that can deliver you quick, long-lasting, and natural results.
Visit Indo Canada Salon & Spa today for the best eyebrow threading in Brampton.
I've been working on something involving these colours (& others), and as you can see I had just enough left of these threads to finish the project.
The orange was especially nervewracking, I was quite sure I was going to have to unpick all my orange stitches and start over with a new shade of orange!

I have seen this today on the street. one woman ( not in the picture ) had a thread in her mouth and twisted it in a funny way around her fingers, she then used the twist to rip out all the little hair in that womans face, I think she shaping the hair above her eyes.

....for my "balloon" of cross stitched appliqué.
That's what I think the two little guys look like. Balloons floating away over The Prairie Point Mountains...
Very happy to salvage my tiny cut out bit of cross stitched hearts...
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
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.
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 don't know whether this was threading -- I can't see the thread -- or massage, but the woman giving it was concentrating and the woman getting it was enjoying it. Near the Post Office.
My thread is in the second drawer in my sewing cabinet. I used a package of long golf tees and a piece of pegboard cut to fit the drawer. I put a bit of glue on the golf tee and pushed it up from the bottom side of the peg board. I only used every other hole so there would be room for my spools. Once the golf tees were in place, I let it dry overnight.
To keep the bobbins and spools together, I put the bobbin on the peg and pop the thread spool on top of it.
I found this suggestion on a quilting forum when I looked for thread racks.
For now, I only have thread in half of my drawer. I can add more golf tees when I need more storage. Until then, I store my sandpaper board and a dozen pieces of felt in the drawer. I use the felt to lay out block pieces.
