I was sick on Sunday, so I didn't take any pictures for that day. This is some thread one of my best friends gave me awhile ago in the summer. I am really grateful to have bright friends in my life.
Giant spools of thread purchased for fifty cents each. I think I'll use the bright green on my table cloth skirt. Or maybe that teal color.
The one on the bottom was eating the whole time. They flew, landed and moved around for some time while I watched and took pictures. Thread Waisted Wasp: Eremnophila aureonotata.
Hand embroidered flowers with silk threads, very exquisite. You could see the stitches clearly from the picture.
I've been working on hand dying grosgrain ribbon, different weights of cotton thread, and cotton fabric for the last week.
I found this pattern on Urban Threads my new favorite embroidery website!
I bought 6 patterns at Urban Threads and this is the 1st one that I have completed so far. I love what it says and I love the colors I used. I plan on framing this and placing it in my craft room. I also may display it as wallpaper on my laptop. Because Santa was good to me and bought me a light box for X-Mas I have finally gotten out of the realm of relying only on the iron on embroidery patterns. It was hand embroidered.

These super cheap boxes keep embroidery thread handy and clean. And they're great for taking thread to classes or hauling it along to work on the go.
I got them at Target. They were actually the packaging for geometry supplies (compass, ruler, protractor, etc.). Fortunately, they were so cheap (under $2 I think) that I could buy the stuff and give it to other shoppers with kids to just keep the boxes.
It was raining heavily when I got up this afternoon. I'm sure the forecast said it would be dry all week

A button of my chemise was torn off, so I had tio sew it back on. It was so unbelivable hard to put the stupid thread into the needle eye. But finally I won and the needle lost.

Ein Knopf von meine Hemd ist abgerissen, also musste ich ihn wieder annähen. Es ist so unglaublich schwer den blöden Faden durchs Nadelöhr zu stecken. Aber schlussendlich habe ich gewonnen und die Nadel verlohren.
Eyebrow and facial hair threading street salon.
An ancient method of hair removal with origins in Arabia and South Asia. A very delicate procedure, making it suitable for even the most sensitive skin. Hair is removed by using string or "thread", and pulling out the hairs by the follicle. (information taken from The Beauty Pot web site www.thebeautypot.com/south-asian-beauty/south-asian-skin-...)
A Hello Kitty tin I bought years and years ago. I'm using it to store thread. There's a pull-out tray for bobbins.

A spider's thread, that is. This tiny 1/2" acorn had lost its cap, but was hanging on and swaying in the breeze. Wonder how long before it falls. Spider's glue is so strong.
There were complaints about my macro capabilities...
This Picture is taken with Fuji X Pro1, Nikon F Mount Adapter, Sigma 80-200 Zoom at 200mm and
a 50mm Planar, mounted inverse on the front lens of the 200mm Zoom. The Planar was stopped down to f16. Everything on a stable tripod. Focussing is done by the tripod, fine focus by 200mm lens.
Focussing is very difficult, since the system is very sensitive to movements. I used a 1m mechanical wire release. Illumination by a LED Lenser Lamp with 200 lumen.
I just found the perfect color embroidery thread to match every single color of wool felt I use. Awesome! www.shinyhappyworld.com/2014/06/perfect-match-just-right-...
