Threading is a traditional beauty treatment for Taiwanese women that removes facial hair and exfoliates the skin.
Found these at Ikea a few weeks ago on sale for $20 each. They are perfect for cone thread and the short, wooly nylon spools. Awesome!

She run in the veins of the fallen leaves losing herself between the yellow and red ones grazing the cold breeze with her fingers full of rings and bags .
She slackens but her eyes are already arrived .
In the station she can feel the smell of old memories crammed into small cases and the rustle of lifes crossing their condensed breath . Emma climbs slowly few damp steps and glances the platforms .
She sits crossing her boots and dreams.
She think of the destiny of the boy hanged in the corner with an undone beard and a lined face from the umpteenth last night of bored happiness ... of a mother near the arcade , unable to choose a gift for his never born child ... of an old man crushed on a bench in front of her counting the ladders of his suit .
“ Are you never afraid of not really being there ? “ a man stares her and sketchs on the glass words that melt fast away ; Emma look at him and answers with a ghost of a smile .
“ It’s possible to look through you , there are other windows inside you “ and more words slide away and wet her face . Emma blows silent words in the air and lowers her eyes .
She would follow and tell him a chapter of her life for every station , she would show him all the faces she has known between the first platform and the exit and to list him every speech and every silence she has listened .
She looks away but the window is already faraway .
Emma checks her hat , seizes the bags and starts to walk again along the platform .
Peoples that walk through Emma leave in her some of their essence : a melancholy , a memory , a thread of smiles . Emma picks up and put down them in the bags , still dubious if leaving or staying, as ever .

Zeiss Ikon Ikoflex 1A // Ilford FP4+ // ID-11 // 10min.@21°C.
B+W ND110
75mm
f/3,5
18sec.
This is one of the first long exposures I've made with the Ikoflex and the ND110 filter.
Took quite some thinking to find a way to attach a 77mm filter to a 35,5mm filter thread. I (for now) ended up with building a plastic funnel-like thing, where I could attach a 77mm / 67mm stepdown ring to, and then slide it onto the lens.
Works great, but on some of the images, there's a bright circle from the lens being reflected in the filter. The filter simply needs to be much closer to the lens.
So it's back to the drawing board.
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!
This is the detail of a decoration adorning the inside of one of Hoi An's Chinese assembly halls.
These incredible buildings are an absolute visual feast.
This arrived in the mail this morning from Krista. It's my prize from Tallgrass Prarie Studios Joy in the New Year.
It's it cute cute cute!!! Can't wait to start using it. Thanks Krista!
Canvas worked with polychrome silk threads and fine metal threads to create naturalistic representations of birds, and different species of flowers and fruit, all seemingly growing from the same miraculous bush/tree (alluding to the Tree of Life). The background is worked in Ground Stitch with metal/silver threads, much of which has turned black due to oxidization over four centuries; however, it would have reflected candle-light when newly made. The stems have been made by using metal threads in Chain Stitch or Spiral Stitch and each stem enclosing a flower or fruit: the same design is depicted on both sides (but in mirror view).. At the top right hand side is possible a Calendula (Marigold family), with red apples or berries on the right.. Beneath them is possibly a Blue Borage Flower or a Blue Starry Hyacinth, and a strawberry. The next level depicts possibly a red/yellow/white Pansy and an unidentified bird, followed by possibly another Borage Flower or Blue Starry Hyacinth and a strawberry. At the base there is possibly another Calendula with red apples or berries.
The embroidered binding is mounted on wooden boards, and sewn on three cords. The Bible has been printed on laid paper, and the fore-edge, top and bottom leaves have been gilded. The tail-end band is intact, with the head-end band missing, and there is evidence of there having been textile fore-edge ties.
Now that the sweater is finished, I started piecing my quilt. While looking for some white thread, I found this box of thread, all on wooden spools, that I'd forgotten we had. Such pretty colours!
