From thedailylumenbox.com Rollei Retro 80S shot at ISO 50 with SMC Takumar 28mm f/4 and No. 2 close up lens on Pentax Spotmatic F. Developed for 5:30 at 72° F in Cinestill Df96 monobath.

Modern weaving machines use thousands of cords to lift the warp threads of the cloth such that a pattern emerges. The machine this picture was taken from shoots the weft thread using solely air!

I needed some darker red thread to finish this little project. Since it's already dark, photos will have to wait until tomorrow. These reds feel so Christmas-y to me! Even thought this project isn't at all Christmas! :)

Threading for Men, Why not, I saw this today in Watford and could not help taking a picture to share........Sony A7M2 + Sigma 105mm F/2.8, EXIF: Exp 1/200 Sec, ISO 1250, F/2.8 and FL 157mm via conversion to APS-C mode.

I'm taking a fabulous class which involves a lot of hand stitching and a wide variety of threads. Some people collect different threads like others collect fabric! The different displays of everyone's threads was beautiful for sure. For this shot, my camera was set at f1/8 and I focused on one spool of Perle Cotton, letting the others blend and meld together. cy365 335/365

Says one: with me / the threads are loose / and thus / they encage me. // The cans / that's what they / can get

My needle-working skills are minimal but just up to making a minor repair to this pair of trousers. I can see close-to very well but the needle threader helps to get the cotton through the eye of the needle.

The two carnations in the back are vintage and the one in the front is another project I've started but haven't quite finished! I found a similar pattern to the original ones in a vintage booklet so made the melon orange one in the front. My version is not as fluttery as the original, I'm not sure exactly how it's constructed without taking it apart. The instructions I've found is a pretty simple pattern and seems to help if you have variegated thread. I found some on ebay perfect for the flower size. I think it may be a modern day size 30 thread.

Seen at my tailors who did some alterations for me this morning. Aren't they pretty!?

vintage spools of thread

Viewing the Transamerica Pyramid through one of the pylons of the Golden Gate Bridge. Thanks to Agus for showing me the spot to capture this.

This is not a screen applied to this photo. In this section of the V&A Museum, there are some metal threads attached from the ceiling to a structure underneath.

For 7DOS, unusual pov. Taken looking down at a folding colour chart (for embroidery threads) positioned on a mirror.

Button thread & sewing thread.

He, who every morning plans the transactions of the day, and follows that plan, carries a thread that will guide him through a labyrinth of the most busy life.

Recently I swapped some fabrics for colorful threads and zippers. My husband had to add two additional rows. And now I've got even more wonderful rainbow:)

I had a bit of a macroey day inspired by Macro Mondays' multicolour theme.

  

Embroidery Threads

112 Pictures in 2012: #82 Sharp or spiky

Live at The Verdict, Brighton, 04.10.2018

When we moved, I no longer had this nice "behind the door" spot for the thread rack so I cut it in half and it now sits on the work table behind my embroidery machine. It originally held embroidery, serger and regular sewing thread as well as a few spray cans. In its new form, it only holds embroidery thread.

The new version can be seen here:
