A thread-waisted wasp, Ammophila sp., feeding on nectar from snakeroot flowers in our back yard. Letting native "weeds" flower in your garden is a great way to attract pollinators. Leavenworth, Kansas, USA, September 7, 2022.
The Luma Threader, a new product in April, is a threading tool with an illuminated threader that makes it easy to see the thread and eye of the needle.

The thread waisted Wasp is a solitary living wasp which has some macabre habits in the raising and feeding of its offspring. When the female is ready to lay her eggs she will capture and sting a caterpillar or spider. Her sting doesn’t kill her victim though it simply paralyses it. She then places the paralyzed spider or caterpillar into a hole in the ground and then lays one or more eggs on it and then fills in the hole. When her egg hatches the pupa then begins to feed on the paralyzed spider or caterpillar. The article I read also stated that in areas were Black Widow Spiders are native, that they are a favorite food to be stung and buried as baby food by this wasp. I photographed this one in July 2012 at the Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge at middle Island. Middle Island is in the Ohio River between the Ohio town of Newport and the West Virginia town of St. Marys
The quilting is completed and I need to bury all the thread ends by tying them together and then threading them between the layers of the quilt.
At least in sewing anyway. The large one is a 16oz. spool of #69 Bonded Nylon thread in Sage Green, which averages about 6,000 yards in length.
The little baby one is a spool of Mettler Polyester Thread, which is about 220 yards in length and half the size of #69 thread in thickness.
Inspired by: Heather Bailey! www.flickr.com/photos/heather_bailey/151365090/ She made some and I had to try. I couldnt figure out how to distress mine as good as hers but they still turned out great! I laid them out on the most beautiful Heather Bailey Fabric! :)

I found this little bunch of thread (along with some rick rack and bias tape) at Goodwill for $1. I love how colorful it all is together!
Start at the far right of left side of your project. You may want to measure and mark you rigid heddle loom with a 0 in the center of the heddle and mark each inch to the left and right of the zero. If you project is 10" in the heddle, start at the 5" mark on the right or left.
With the threading hook in your right or left hand, pull one set of threads (looks like a loop) through at a time. You are placing the threads in each slot of the loom.
