Today I presented my methods for thread drawing - using four different techniques for this simple piece - to the Harbor Art Guild in Hoquiam, WA.
I used four different techniques to create this image - standard lock-stitching on a home machine, darning on a home machine, fabric applique with fusible web, and hand-embroidery.

So, you stitch around the outside and then turn it inside out and then realise that makes it harder to sew the safety pin and button on.
All the color of thread on pretty wooden spools. Scored by my friend Lindy, who gave them to me. Thanks!!
Wove this little basket from dry pine needles the kids gathered from the parking lot of our favorite Japanese Restaurant in Rhinebeck, NY (Osaka!).
These bracelets were sold at the Boom The Wheel show I went to on Saturday. Red Thread Movement- buying a bracelet helps end sex trafficking. Learn more about Red Thread Movement and buy a bracelet by going to their website: here

Getting through the Reeds too this little guy , was a little problematic hence the title.
Latin name
Acrocephalus scirpaceus
Family
Warblers and allies (Sylviidae)
Overview
The reed warbler is a plain unstreaked warbler. It is warm brown above and buff coloured underneath. It is a summer visitor to breed in the UK, with the largest concentrations in East Anglia and along the south coast - there are relatively few breeding in Scotland and Ireland. It winters in Africa.
Where to see them
In the summer, can be looked for in reedbeds in lowland central and southern England and Wales - it is rarer elsewhere. Sings from within the reedbed rather than from a perch, so often heard rather than seen.
When to see them
Mid-April to early October.
What they eat
Insects; berries in autumn
My sewing machine broke a while ago (it broke 3 times actually, the two last times within 15 minutes of receiving it from service). The online store I bought it at said it was OK to exchange it, but I wasn't really into buying another machine online after this.
Luckily my local sewing store took pity over me and allowed me to trade in my machine with them.
I was in today and picked out a Janome. It was cheaper than mine so I was allowed to pick out all these things to cover the cost. It was like Christmas!
I won't have to buy thread for a while.

i crocheted these shawls out of quilting thread a couple of years ago and then never got around to blocking them or listing them till a customer asked about them recently, so i pulled them out to take pictures. i'd forgotten just how many i made! :lol: i'll be blocking them all this weekend and then listing them on etsy soon. if you are interested in any before that my email addy is in my profile.
Made from Amanda Jean Nyberg's pattern. It was fun to pick fabrics for the outside and linings.
Mod Century is the fabric (from Marmalade).
