It's me versus the machine. I started sewing classes yesterday. Something I've always wanted to do. My mom was a Home economics teacher, but passed away when I was 12, so I never knew more than the basics. My sweet husband got me a sewing/embroidery machine for my birthday. I hope it's going to give me a little chance to be creative.
Card I made for this month's Hero Arts challenge - watercoloring. I used this fun stack of watercolor paints I got from Hero Arts - fabulous! Too bad I'm not so good at painting. Oh well, Deb and Dave will appreciate it anyway - I was in their wedding those many years ago. TFL!

Pinehurst housing development, South Everett WA USA, Once again the fertile hunting ground of my Moth sheet proved to be a bonanza for Assassin Bugs, this one has a small Fly with outrageously bushy antenna thoroughly impaled on its feeding tube.
Today I presented my methods for thread drawing - using four different techniques for this simple piece - to the Harbor Art Guild in Hoquiam, WA.
I used four different techniques to create this image - standard lock-stitching on a home machine, darning on a home machine, fabric applique with fusible web, and hand-embroidery.
American Legion Southway Post 144
Columbus, OH
-Gun, 37mm M3A1 No.9955, Ord. Dept. U.S.A., U.S. Mach. Corp. 1942, 191lbs Insp. J.S.C.
-Tube No.27929, U.S. Mach. Corp, Gun, 37mm M3
The only feature differentiating the M3A1 from the M3 is the threaded end of the muzzle, intended for a muzzle brake that was never actually issued or used.
after decades of very sporadic use, the 20 metres of darning thread reached the end of the line, revealing a very touching Heinzelmaennchen (alluding to the company name Heinze) on the cardboard support. Good excuse to produce a thread of thread photos.
C.S. Osborne Wiss Thread Clips are ideal for clipping threads, strings and ripping seams. Positive action, self-opening spring provides fast, clean cutting. Hot drop forged off fine cutlery steel. Regular edge. Sharp points. Nickel plated. Comes with a red plastic safety protection to prevent damage in the points. Overall length 4 5/8". Length of cut 1". Weight 3 oz.
my mom just remodeled my room to be her sewing room and it looks great. This is part of her thread selection that is organized on the wall.
Silk thread roti - the threads made of caramelised sugar and then eaten in a roti - is a desert created in Ayutthaya. A mix of Indian subcontinent and Thai cuisines, the dish here was made by a Muslm family living in Ayutthaya and I was told that it is typically sold in the street by Muslim vendors.
The colours can vary - the green sugarsilk is coloured by use of the pandan/pandanus leaf.
I saw Chinese thread books online and fell in love. I was doing a zentangle project…and decided to combine the two. Origami and I are not the best of friends…yet…so I had to make SO many boxes to get what I wanted…and ended up with 3 books. The boxes open in different ways and are stacked on top of each other to hold thread, pattern pieces, small scissors, buttons…etc. SO much fun!
New memorial to Stephen Simpson’s gold thread works in Avenham, Preston.
Amongst other things, Military badges, Christmas decorations and telephone cables, all incorporating gold and silver, were made at the factory until its closure in 1991.
During the Second World War factory bosses were given a top secret assignment -- to make authentic German badges for British spies. A small room in the factory had been used by women to produce authentic badges for English spies going to Germany in the Second World War.
Richard Arton, born in Preston in 1921, worked for Stephen Simpson’s. While here he was commissioned to design an evening bag that was presented to HRH Queen Elizabeth on her visit to the town in 1938. He also designed of the lettering and heraldic crests on the Wedding Cake of HRH Elizabeth II and Prince Philip and undertook refurbishment of the Royal Order Garters belonging to the Queen and Winston Churchill.
The old Gold Thread factory has been conveted into flats.

This is a photograph from the 2nd Annual Rock 'n' Roll Dublin Half Marathon which was held in Dublin, Ireland on Monday 4th August 2014 at 08:30. The Rock 'n' Roll Dublin Half Marathon also incorporated the Athletics Association of Ireland (AAI) National Half Marathon Championships which was open to all eligible runners registered with an AAI affiliated athletics club. The race started in Dublin City center at North Wall Quay and Castleforbes Road on the Liffey. The route then went West out of the city bringing runners along the famous South Quays to Inchicore and then taking a slight northerly direction into the Phoenix Park. The race finished in the Phoenix Park with runners following over half of the course within the grounds of the famous park. Over 7,000 people took part. The Rock 'n' Roll Marathon series is one of the largest running series in the world with events primarily taking place in North American Cities. However, recently the franchise has spread to Europe. One of the unique aspects of the race is that every course features live bands along the course along with cheering teams of supporters at water stations. In the Phoenix Park today there was a large entertainment area at the Finish line for competitors, families and friends to enjoy.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
