Made from Amanda Jean Nyberg's pattern. This one does not have batting or interfacing in it. It is really nice for traveling.
Mod Century is the fabric (from Marmalade).

After turning the aluminum down to 22mm (0.866"), I cut threads at 1mm pitch.
Perhaps the more experienced people out there can give me a hint. When I ultimately tried this on a factory-made part, the threads wouldn't mesh.
The only variable that I can't measure/verify is the depth of the threads. I have one dinky reference from the library that says that 1mm threads should be .54127mm (21.31 thou) deep. Unless, of course, I'm misreading the very complicated diagram.
But yeah, definately tool porn.
I've seen these around on Flickr and the internet and finally have one to call my own! All of the threads belonged to my Nana.
This is Hardanger-like, but worked over three threads rather than the four most usually used in Hardanger-work. It is perhaps closer to the Danish Hedebo of the 1840s (Hedebo embroidery changed in style over the years) and the embroidery from the Malmö region of Sweden at the same period.

Most species nest in the ground, usually in areas that have sparse or no vegetation; some species construct aerial nests composed of mud; a few species nest in hollow plant stems or abandoned bee burrows in logs.
Larvae feed on the paralyzed bodies of a variety of arthropods (the host varies according to wasp species) provided to them by adult wasps; common hosts include spiders, grasshoppers, and caterpillars.
Adults feed on nectar from flowers and extrafloral nectaries, honeydew, and body fluids of their prey.
I captured this one while it feed on the nectar of this Spanish Needle, in the vacant lot next door.

Followed these guys (Threads), around with my camera all day. Was meant to be helping them out by doing some filming but photos did a happen. Granted I did some filming but I was more interested in getting some shots. First ever photos i've done like this, i'd say I did ok considering!
At the top of Ben Arthur (the cobbler), after a small scramble doing what's known as "threading the needle" I capture this great picture of my friend mid air.
