Open thread: An open House of Representatives?
Created by Adrienne Yancey for opensource.com
It's a featherless Sunday again.
A beautiful non-stinging wasp, this Thread-waisted Wasp is about a half-inch long and flies about any flower it can feed on and even inspects the dead flowers. I'm not sure if this wasp feeds on other smaller insects.

After purchasing 2 more of the Ikea Drawer Units, I can now store my threads near the machines they are used on.
Followed these guys (Threads), around with my camera all day. Was meant to be helping them out by doing some filming but photos did a happen. Granted I did some filming but I was more interested in getting some shots. First ever photos i've done like this, i'd say I did ok considering!
This shot from a shop. Once they said they don't like to camera inside the shop. After one month, I went there as a new guy and took good shots. I was in a hurry and 50% unfocused. Anyway I like a lot of stuff there.
I was unpacking my sewing stuffs and was inspired by Julie to snap a photo of my threads, although not nearly as exciting as the House of Pinku collection! I keep Blue/Purple/Green in the first, Red/Orange/Yellow in the second and White/Black/Brown in the third.
Fiber art quilt with black fabric border (not shown). Wall hanging made from fabric, yarn, threads, quilted and embroidered
Here's a shot of the cam chain finally threaded under the main drive gear within the lower end. It took threading two guitar strings through the ends of each side of the cam chain, then creating a loop on on end, bending it around, then feeding it deep underneath and grabbing it on the other end with a hooked tool.
Of course, the cam chain roller (in between the two pistons). Removed by two 10mm bolts.
This entire process was very tricky in the sense that it took four synchronized hands all working together in unison to handle start to finish.
More experimental strobist work, this time cotton threaded through a needle.

A fine cord of cotton or other fibrous material is spun out to a considerable length, especially when it is composed of two or more fibers twisted together.

Of course, the cam chain roller (in between the two pistons). Removed by two 10mm bolts for ease of access.

Rather than trace tack as Claire Shaeffer suggests I tailor tack the seam and placement lines using a double thread of soft cotton.
I shall trace tack the centre front mark. I begin by placing several pins (marked with arrows) along the CF line…
