This is my first cross stitch - my sister gave it to me for my birthday last year but I only started it at Christmas. I'm making rather slow progress so far, but I'm finding it quite therapeutic actually. It takes all my concentration to count the stitches and remember where I'm up to, and stops me thinking about other things - which is good!

 

Enter for HPAD's January Scavenger Hunt.

A Union Pacific stack train threads through stark Palisade Canyon, Nevada, and crosses the Humbolt River on March 7, 2012. The vastness of this barren landscape through Palisade Canyon is better seen in this wider view, where the train really does look like a “thread” in the scenery.

1/8" acrylic used as the "thread" on the statue. The curl at the end was heated first, then wrapped over the painted sections and holds in place via friction with no adhesive

OMG two f**king reels of thread

Threads from a few things I've been working on today.

Each thread tower records sunshine of one day.

134 skeins of DMC Pearl Cotton, Size 5. Paid $45 (includes S&H)... so only about 34 cents a skein!!!

Just part of Jenny Beasley's thread collection which is all organised into these wonderful thread holders, made and designed by her friend Chris.

I actually don't use color thread too much anymore since all of my Gerbera things use black accents but it made for a pretty picture!

Actually, I want to attempt to sew a dress for summer. Never been good at sewing though. In fact, 9 times out of 10 the thread knots up and I need someone to bail me out by putting the thread right again... so might be a "bit" of a challenge!

 

I'm starting small though... tonight I made a sunglass case. Nice and rectangular :)

We are tied with different threads of time. we cross over and certainly go parallel as destined.

 

I am a fan of Sci-Fi movies and 've watched the movie (Source Code) in recent time. and seeing the photograph this though was aroused! LOL

Thank you!

This is a strap that I wove from cotton thread. This was woven using tablet weaving cards on an inkle loom.

As found in an old military sewing kit.

When I was taking out the garbage this afternoon, I noticed a BIG bag filled with thread next to the chute! Of course I had to take it with me! It was full of thread. Well over 100 spools. Mostly Coats & Clarks, and mostly on plastic spools so it can't be too old. I usually buy Gutterman, but I'm not about to turn away free thread!
