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.
Silk thread roti - the threads made of caramelised sugar and then eaten in a roti - is a desert created in Ayutthaya. A mix of Indian subcontinent and Thai cuisines, the dish here was made by a Muslm family living in Ayutthaya and I was told that it is typically sold in the street by Muslim vendors.
The colours can vary - the green sugarsilk is coloured by use of the pandan/pandanus leaf.

I love thread! The colors are eye candy. The spools and bobbins look beautiful neat or messy. I love looking at the displays of color in stores where there are loads of spools. What a goof, eh?...but I know I'm not alone....
these threads were passed on from one hand to another...... time marches on...... these threads will be stitched someday
Facial Threading - The Ancient Art of Beauty.
這種古早的美容術，運用細棉線和白粉將臉上多餘雜毛、粉刺及角質層去除的手藝，在台灣被稱作「挽面」，廣州人習慣稱「界面」，中國大陸北方則叫作「絞面」或「絞臉」，此外還有「拉面」、「開臉」等等稱法，而無論稱法如何不同，光就字面意義可知，指的是同一種在臉上做大掃除的古早美容術。

I made a wrapped thread detail....woohoooo what fun! And, then, I decided ...hey...this could be a button loop, so, I stitched on two lovely shell buttons.... wrapped my initial two threads probably a bit too loosely around one button for length....and carried on with wrapping. I will probably go ahead and do the second loop... try to get them the same length...and then, move the buttons a bit further away .. or not...I'll see what it all looks like when I finish my second 'wrapping'...more FK and other detailing to come at the base...
EEC 2013 (Embroider, Embellish, Create)
This embroidery thread came in a bag of vintage zippers from the thrift store. anyone interested in swapping some fabric for these? I don't embroider so I won't use these. There are 57 different pieces (not necessarily different colors) and some blank cards.
would love a FQ of Momo wonderland (like the butterfies). or try me if you are interested!
All you need is a little bit of Glass on your thread. And pray that the Kite-flyer who is challenging you doesn't have more glass on his kite threads!
Its more than a Game.
Its a Gamble.
But on 15 August.
Skies in India are full of Kites.
Some learning to fly.
Some crushing others, to show their dominance in the Sky.
Freedom for all.
Antique Drawn-Thread Lace sampler that I found with my grandmother's things. She didn't sew so it must have been made in the late 1800's. Very fine fabric. Piece is a 5"square.
With my first cup of coffee in had this morning, I hear this amazing crash! Have you ever had over 100 spools of thread crash to the ground?!
Still sitting where they landed, I haven't had the heart to pick them up!!!
Just finished up this pin cushion made with tiny thread granny squares.
