I forgot to upload the full thread sketch of my dragon. I used the paper as a stabilizer. On the real thing, I'll use some sort of fusible interfacing, I presume.
When I'm alone
I know I go
I paid in leaves
to the sun
In light of god
I see myself
movieing things
every day
The open sky
The breathing stars

Thread Magic: The Enchanted World of Ellen Anne Eddy
Ellen Anne Eddy is an internationally known fiber artist whose wall art goes beyond the traditional concept of quilting. Fish, bugs, birds, and frogs are found throughout her art, blending her dreams and vision with the natural world. She uses hand-dyed fabrics, lames, machine embroidery, cut-away applique, and layered sheers to create the illusion of flames, water, and mist in her work.The chapters guide the reader step-by-step with everything from "Looking at Quilts" to "Rehabilitating Troubled Quilts." The gallery of quilts features both full images and detail shots. The photographs are bright and colorful, the illustrations clear and helpful. Ellen's quilts are divided into several series and themes, with each section offering her inspiration for that theme. It is Ellen's hope that by sharing her journey as an artist she can inspire her readers in their artistic journey.
Hand-dyed fabrics, layered sheers, and machine embroidery are spotlighted in these extraordinary quilts featuring birds, animals, and insects. Includes a step-by-step technical section.

What a metallic thread can do...From my blog post "How to stitch with metallic threads" here www.mrxstitch.com/how-to-stitch-with-metallic-threads/
I've always wanted to do a skull. I figured it was time. I'm keeping with the 'creepy Lisa Frank' theme.
This is my first attempt at stumpwork (the bow) and thread painting (eyes) and it went suprisingly well. Also, I figured out my archnemesis 'metallic thread' (bow and teeth), and we're BFFs now.
My sewing machine came with many different feet, many of which I really don't know how to use. As a quilter, this is the most useful. It is a 1/4 inch foot which allows me to sew more accurate seams. I use it practically every day!

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.

So I took Amber in to get her eyebrows threaded for the first time. I was more nervous than she was. What a trooper!
Eyebrow threading is an ancient technique that originated in India. A cotton thread is used and it twists around a line of hairs and removes them all at the same time.
All the color of thread on pretty wooden spools. Scored by my friend Lindy, who gave them to me. Thanks!!
Wove this little basket from dry pine needles the kids gathered from the parking lot of our favorite Japanese Restaurant in Rhinebeck, NY (Osaka!).

Inside. I had these tiny scissors from Spiced Coffee- they'll have to hang out in here until I can find some folding ones.
Made with this cute tute- www.sewmamasew.com/2011/01/travel-sewing-case-tutorial/ I made it a bit bigger and with 2 elastics to hold it closed, but otherwise I followed the tute.

My sewing machine broke a while ago (it broke 3 times actually, the two last times within 15 minutes of receiving it from service). The online store I bought it at said it was OK to exchange it, but I wasn't really into buying another machine online after this.
Luckily my local sewing store took pity over me and allowed me to trade in my machine with them.
I was in today and picked out a Janome. It was cheaper than mine so I was allowed to pick out all these things to cover the cost. It was like Christmas!
I won't have to buy thread for a while.
