Macro Mondays - Needle & Thread
Best efforts while on holidays in ‘locked down’ Lanzarote, using my smartphone and needle repair kit !!
Fortunately, we are booked on the last scheduled flight home..... but I think it will be out of the frying pan and into fire.
I hope all MM members keep safe and well in these troubled times
This is on a dress I made in 1967. I believe it was done by a machine to mimic crocheting. It came in a strip.
Maybe somebody actually crocheted it?
A little experiment in recycling using one ply of a painted paper towel (leftover clean-up towel from a past fabric painting session), a couple of scraps of a painted used fabric softener sheet and some painted cheesecloth – on a piece of wool felt.
This is a piece of gold printed sari silk needle punched by machine onto a piece of dyed felted wool fabric. The needles did not like the metallic paint so it made an interesting texture because the painted bits did not get felted. This was very hard on the needles, though, they kept jumping and sliding, so I don't think I will do it again!
Samples made on the embellisher using bits from my reject bin! I've been playing with needle punching the fabrics then 'quilting' them using the decorative stitches on my sewing machine.
The darker green piece is another 'verdigris' bit I made using a piece of green silk with a scarab stencil in copper coloured metallic powder mixed with fabric medium that didn't come out at all well. I made a 'sandwich' with the printed fabric on top, some copper coloured silk fibres on the bottom and turquoise felt in the middle. I needle punched it quite heavily on both sides to bring the felt and the silk fibres through to the top. Then I machine quilted it in a greek key pattern with copper coloured thread.
The piece on the right was a piece of space dyed muslin treated with potassium permanganate then discharged with lemon juice. It was very drab and dingy. I needle punched it to a piece of dyed wool blanket in turquoise to brighten it up a bit. Then I machine quilted in two different patterns with copper coloured, green and turquoise thread.
The last piece was space dyed muslin that I had scribbled on in felt tip pens in dark red and silver. I needle punched it to a piece of yellow felt to harmonise the colours, then machine quilted it in yellow thread.
I used my
Instant Mitten pattern, and then decorated them with embroidery. Click on "free stuff" for instructions.
|INSTAGRAM| |FACEBOOK| Embellish Don’t you think that the world will be a better place if everyone embellishes in front of their own house? Like in Eguisheim. A village which has to important specialties: One of the most beautiful villages of France & one of the best flowered villages in France (highest category). Fransa Alsace bölgesinin masalsı kasabası Eguisheim’ın 2 tane önemli bileziği var. Birincisi “Fransa’nın en güzel kasabaları” listesinde yer alan 155 kasabadan biri; diğeri de “Fransa’nın en iyi çiçeklendirilmiş kasabaları” yarışmasında en üst mertebe olan 4 yıldıza sahip. Herkes kendi evinin önünü böyle güzelleştirse sence dünya daha yaşanası olmaz mı? BeNowMeHere, Eguisheim, France, 2015 via 500px bit.ly/2MwnTzI
Another prototype brooch - this time with threads, nepps and roving felted onto hand-dyed cotton, on a felt backing edged with whip-stitch.

The neighborhood was a hair sketchy, and my husband wouldn't let me photograph all the cool graffiti.

Don't you just love these super soft berries? I made them using thrifted fabric and some pretty embellishments. They are nice and plump! One berry will fit in your palm!
These are photos taken on my trip to Europe and the UK with a girl friend in October to November 2012. My camera I had then wasn't good with low light so some of these shots are not great but I have put them as my memories of the trip.
Day in Oxford on a cold October day in 2012. We stayed here two nights.
Christ Church Cathedral.
The cathedral was originally the church of St Frideswide's Priory. The site was historically presumed to be the location of the nunnery founded by St Frideswide, the patron saint of Oxford, and the shrine now in the Latin Chapel, originally containing relics translated at the rebuilding in 1180, was the focus of pilgrimage from at least the 12th until the early 16th century.
In 1522, the priory was surrendered to Thomas Cardinal Wolsey, who had selected it as the site for his proposed college. However, in 1529 the foundation was taken over by Henry VIII. Work stopped, but in June 1532 the college was refounded by the King. In 1546, Henry VIII transferred to it the recently created See of Oxford from Osney. The cathedral has the name of Ecclesia Christi Cathedralis Oxoniensis, given to it by Henry VIII's foundation charter.
There has been a choir at the cathedral since 1526, when John Taverner was the organist and also master of the choristers. The statutes of Wolsey's original college, initially called “Cardinal College”, mentioned 16 choristers and 30 singing priests.
Christ Church Cathedral is one of the smallest cathedrals in the Church of England.
The nave, choir, main tower and transepts are late Norman. There are architectural features ranging from Norman to the Perpendicular style and a large rose window of the ten-part (i.e. botanical) type.

Oxford, a city in central southern England, revolves around its prestigious university, established in the 12th century. The architecture of its 38 colleges in the city’s medieval center led poet Matthew Arnold to nickname it the 'City of Dreaming Spires'. University College and Magdalen College are off the High Street, which runs from Carfax Tower (with city views) to the Botanic Garden on the River Cherwell.
Hope is a strange invention --
A Patent of the Heart --
In unremitting action
Yet never wearing out --
Of this electric Adjunct
Not anything is known
But its unique momentum
Embellish all we own --
Emily Dickinson
Glad I kept the old Canon 60D. Having fun with her. Even though she feels a bit clunky, she can still produce. This is a F1600 slowly motoring back to paddock after one of it's practice sessions at Watkins Glen today. Fun with motorsport and photography.
