A glass ampul containing virgin silk; an extremely fine ophthalmic suture material consisting of two to seven natural silk filaments bonded together by sericin, a natural adhesive. This ampul is dated 28-01-1964. The silk was held in the ampul to protect it from air and contaminants. To get to the silk, you had to snap of the neck of the ampul.
Postman just delivered a package with THREAD festival brochures in it. And my picture of a pincushion is featured on it! Yay!

Forget my previous pics... This pic is by far the creepiest pic of all my photostream. Like seriously, just look how creepy/depressed Stravos look on all these bodies.

(Don't worry Stravos, I won't do that to you ever again, ever. And be afraid of Morten... Good thing you're an immortal guy).
Needles Eye Tunnel was a bit scary to drive through. It felt like I was threading a needle. Needles Eye Tunnel is one of three tunnels located along the Needles Highway (South Dakota Highway 87) which is part of the Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway in Custer State Park, South Dakota. At 8'4" in width and 11'3" in height, this tunnel is the narrowest of the three tunnels along this highway. In fact, it is the narrowest tunnel in the state. If you find yourself in this part of South Dakota, do yourself a favor and take the time to explore this beautiful park.
Here are 9 more photos from our fall 2017 camping trip.
These all have a ghost town feeling, and later I will post photos of the quirky art here at Tuscarora, Nevada.
Concrete foundations on the flat below Tuscarora must have once held ore processing equipment secured on these rusty bolts. It looks like the threads didn't survive the machinery removal.
Cover Photo, Rusty and Crusty, March 21, 2018
The assignment was to create a cover and spread for a magazine inspired from two distinct fashion designers. My inspiration was Valentino and Christian Lacroix.

These rather large threaded fasteners are stacked on a wooden pallet ready for use to assemble heat exchangers. Note the relative size of the can of soda pop in the upper left. The can has an approximate diameter of 2-5/8”. Also note the relative size of the length of these studs compared to the wooden pallet on which they sit!
Made of high strength alloy, the spec on these are generally listed as SA193 Grade B7 with SA194 Grade 2H nuts.
3.5" green center is surrounded by pastel ruffles. Doily is 5.5" in diameter.
Cotton crochet thread #10 was used.
They can be used as coasters, candle doilies or under a small vase or trinket.

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! :)
66418 threads Ipswich station with 4R97 Felixstowe to Tilbury Freightliner service. In a confined space Ipswich is a very busy location with passing freight,loco movements and passenger workings.
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

Another lovely day, so you'd think I'd photograph something to show that, but here we have a quickly snapped reel of thread, crossed processed to give it some age and a Kim Klassen texture added.....I do like having a bit of a play :)
Correction, it was a nice day, but by 3pm it had turned grey again :(
This is also for #46 "Needle" of the 114 Pictures in 2014 Scavenger Hunt.
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.
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.
For 7DOS, unusual pov. Taken looking down at a folding colour chart (for embroidery threads) positioned on a mirror.
For Nuart Aberdeen 2024, Italian artist Millo weaves together whimsy and history on the walls of the Community Care Village. His signature wide-eyed figure sits serenely amid a surreal cityscape, pegging up snapshots from Aberdeen’s past—trams in flames, old tenements, and tender everyday moments. A mural that quite literally airs the city’s stories on the line.
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.

It took me months to locate a copy of this pattern for sale. It's a small leaflet called "Irish Crochet Heart Ornament". I think it's also in one of Annie's Attic's old bookmark booklets, shown with a ribbon woven down the middle of it somehow.
The pink thread was found at a thrift store now being turned into tatting
