"Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years" is attributed to Simone Signoret
A woman moves swiftly, but delicately feeding the thread onto the bobbins in one of the many weaving centres on the Inle Lake in Myanmar.

Thread-legged bug of the genus Ploiaria; probably P. antipodum (endemic to NZ). The two front 'legs' are antennae. This one has caught a fungus gnat. Sitting on an introduced toadstool, Amanita muscaria. Rimutaka Forest Park.

A threaded fastener is a discrete piece of hardware that has internal or external screw threads. It falls into the overall fastener family. They are usually used for the assembly of multiple parts and facilitate disassembly.
“Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry.”
― Richard P. Feynman

I was totally stumped as to what to use since all my sewing things are packed, then I remembered I still had these little gems in my Spice rack. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saffron This is the worlds most costly spice by weight. That's why I have so little of it. I use it in rice mostly. It give the rice a yellowish tinge and a nice musty flavour.

A ripple of bright blue threads through this galaxy like a misshapen lake system. The foreground of this image is littered with nearby stars with their gleaming diffraction spikes. A keen eye can also spot a few other galaxies that, while masquerading as stars at first glance, reveal their true nature on closer inspection.
The central galaxy streaked with colour, IC 4870, was discovered by DeLisle Stewart in 1900 and is located approximately 28 million light-years away. It contains an active galactic nucleus, or AGN: an extremely luminous central region so alight with radiation that it can outshine the rest of the galaxy put together. AGNs emit radiation across the complete electromagnetic spectrum, from radio waves to gamma-rays, produced by the action of a central supermassive black hole that is devouring material getting too close to it. IC 4870 is also a Seyfert galaxy, a particular kind of AGN with characteristic emission lines.
IC 4870 has been imaged by Hubble for several studies of nearby active galaxies. By using Hubble to explore the small-scale structures of AGN in nearby galaxies, astronomers can observe the traces of collisions and mergers, central galactic bars, nuclear starbursts, jets or outflows, and other interactions between a galactic nucleus and its surrounding environment. Images such as this can help astronomers understand more about the true nature of the galaxies we see throughout the cosmos.

"Thread", Tim Lowly, acrylic on panel, 13.7" x 11.7", 2019.
This brand new painting is one of two works that I will have in the upcoming group show at Hofheimer Gallery in Chicago. The opening reception is this Friday, November 6 from 5 - 8 pm. There are 26 artists in the exhibition. If you are in the Chicago vicinity you don't want to miss this.

Just a few of the vintage thread spools I have. These are the old wooden spools and are quite old as they belonged to my mother when I was a child.

Like a master tailor, the Denver and Rio Grande surveyors threaded the gap in the metamorphic rock of the San Juan Mountains to enter the Silverton Caldera. The Caldera, a mineral-rich region is entered here through the gap at Cataract Falls, a seasonal cascade in the background high above the River of Souls. The Rio de Las Animas cuts its way, staining the rocks a distinctive ochre color, due to the high mineral content due to the natural leaching of rocks by groundwater in the caldera. Still, this process has been exacerbated by the numerous mines cut into the earth above Silverton, causing the same 'natural' water to gush forth faster than it would... See the "Gold King Disaster' of 2015. Though these rocks have long been stained before that infamous incident.
The Nematocera (thread-horns) are a suborder of elongated flies with thin, segmented antennae and mostly aquatic larvae, consisting of the mosquitoes, crane flies, gnats, black flies, and midges.
Nematocera are typically characterized by filamentous, multisegmented antennae which may be plumose in some males. The Nematocera are a paraphyletic suborder, because one of its constituent families (Anisopodidae) is apparently a sister taxon to the entire suborder Brachycera; an alternative classification has been proposed in which the family Nymphomyiidae (traditionally classified within the Blephariceromorpha) is removed to its own suborder, the Archidiptera, and all the remaining nematoceran families are placed in a suborder called Eudiptera; however, the Eudiptera are also paraphyletic, and this classification has not been widely accepted. Largely due to its long history, the name Nematocera continues to be used.
Examples of the Nematocera include the mosquitoes (Culicidae), crane flies (Tipulidae) and black flies (Simuliidae). Many of the remaining families (especially Mycetophilidae, Anisopodidae, and Sciaridae), are called gnats, while others (especially Chironomidae, Cecidomyiidae, and Ceratopogonidae) are called midges.
The larvae are mostly aquatic and have distinct heads with mouthparts that may be modified for filter feeding. The pupae are orthorrhaphous (meaning adults emerge from the pupa through a straight seam in the pupal cuticle). The bodies and legs of the adults are usually elongate, and these flies often have relatively long abdomens.
Many species form mating swarms of males, and in some of these, competition for females is extreme. Although many species (as larvae) have a strong association with water, even within a single family there may be a trend toward semiaquatic and terrestrial habitats.
The yucca is a fascinating plant of needles and threads. It looks like t's trying to sew itself up with spiraling threads springing from the leaves. This is one of the spiraling threads.

Borrowed thread from my mom. She was a dressmaker. Her specialty, wedding gowns and fine dresses. She taught me to sew my clothes when I was a teen.
