da anni ormai sostengo la mia teoria sul filo invisibile che lega determinate persone.
è difficile per quante cose possano accedere, che questo filo si spezzi…
il pensiero di una l'azione dell'altro o viceversa oppure solamente pensieri che si intrecciano con le nuvole di un cielo che è sempre lo stesso.
Se un capo è teso dall'altra parte si sente…

Small treasures.
Most of these are wooden spools. My favourite is the small spool of "service khaki", it's only an inch high.
For a project for Caturah.
The process of making has been good for me. I like putting single elements together into a useful whole.
Mrs Nghien started spinning silk at age 20, and retired in 2023 at the age of 96. She was kind enough to set up her tools and show us her skill.
Truc Ninh in Vietnam has a long history of silk production. Renowned for its high-quality silk, the region has a strong tradition of manual silk thread production, passed down through generations. While facing modern challenges, Truc Ninh continues to produce silk, combining traditional methods with modern techniques to sustain this valuable cultural heritage and contribute to the local economy.

Macro Mondays-Sewing Notions theme.
Not sure how the thread got twisted around the needle like that, but its not good.
Shot using a Canon FD 100mm f2.8 and a Canon FD 25 U macro extension tube.
Spools of thread, cards with trim or bias tape and bits of lace totally remind me of my childhood. My mother always sewed all my clothes and I didn't wear a 'store bought' dress until I was old enough to have a part-time job and buy my own.
Mum was an excellent seamstress and could make the most complicated patterns. When I was in high school and all the other girls were beginning to dress like hippies I was the one kitted out in tweed suits sewn from Vogue patterns that made me look like Angela Lansbury from Murder She Wrote. I even had jackets with bound buttonholes. I betcha there is hardly anyone reading this who is familiar with a bound buttonhole but take it from me it's very complicated sewing.
Do you think I was happy wearing these designer clothes? Not even a bit....it was horrifying...it was humiliating.....it was persecution. :-D I wanted to be like all the other girls and wear cheap stuff off the rack. This caused no end of consternation in our household resulting in tears, harsh words, foot stomping and pouting but I still had to wear those remarkably well made clothes.
One of my greatest liberating triumphs came when my mother made my coat for school. It was a dressy knee length coat with a lovely weave in powder blue. It was an old lady coat. There wasn't a day that went by that this ungrateful daughter didn't complain about her embarrassing coat so finally my mother said she would dye it navy blue if it would make me happier about it. It seemed a compromise I could live with.
So Mum set about dying the coat and when she was done it had shrunk to the size of something only a five year old could wear.
I was overjoyed.
She was dismayed.
It was vindication.

This was taken in the flower garden at Pineland Farm in New Gloucester, Maine.
Thread-waisted wasp, (subfamily Sphecinae), any of a group of large, common, solitary (nonsocial) wasps in the family Sphecidae (order Hymenoptera) that are named for the stalklike anterior (front) end of the abdomen. Thread-waisted wasps are typically more than 2.5 cm (about 1 inch) long and are parasitic on insects and spiders. The host is often numbed by malaxation, a pinching or crushing of the neck by the wasp’s pincerlike jaws, and paralyzed by the wasp’s sting. The wasp places the host’s body in a mud cell and lays an egg on it. Upon hatching, the larva consumes the host.[Encyclopedia Britannica]
“There's a thread that binds all of us together, pull one end of the thread, the strain is felt all down the line”

Few young couples today have to start out living like their parents or grandparents in homes without electricity, running water or consistent heat. Our farm home with 8 kids was blessed with linoleum and even that was torn in places. Carpet was a latecomer and my job as a youngun' was to rake it (shag). Many of the farmers in our part of the state in the 1940s & 50s were hanging by a thread financially, striving to provide just the basics for their children. Many good lessons were learned in times of need including the novel concept of "if you don't have money for it, you don't buy it."
My box of thread for a project I just finished. I always wait until the piece comes back from the dry cleaners before I put the thread away. You never know if you'll have to restitch something after it's been cleaned and pressed so I leave the thread in my little project box. Once I've inspected the piece, I put the bobbins back and start hunting for a new project to occupy my time.
I don't do a lot of sewing (some, but not a lot) so when the Macro Mondays theme of "Needle and Thread" was announced I was like, "What can I do that's different and makes sense to me?" Well, I'm way more into Sci-fi then stitching, and a needle does look a little like a rocket if you view it right, so why not set it on fire. Natural thought progression -- right? So, there you have it. That's why I have burning thread in my needle.
One last piece of vintage machinery from Thomas Edison's machine shop.
There are some great pieces of industrial history here, but the light can be a bit challenging for a photographer, due to the big windows. Guess I need to go back for a longer visit on a cloudy day in the winter...
How these skies
become conversations
threading our lives together
Stories playing notes on the wind
The melody of tragedy and laughter
beginnings and endings
and all the in betweens
Our tears evaporating into the sun-warmed air
becoming billowing clouds
of tomorrows rain
These skies
weaving a tapestry of song
me,
and you
us
them
Everyone.
