Spools and spools of thread. Silk. Cotton. Metallic. All colors. Some shimmer. Rich colors. Waiting to be selected, a length cut and the needle threaded. The embroidery comes alive under the artist’s fingers stitching. I had asked Joan B if I could photograph her thread as I have another photo from before but today the light was so nice. She made coffee in a French Press and homemade sticky buns, a Fiesta bowl full of fresh fruit cut up and mixed with yogurt and honey. An indoor garden of color! And the little cushioned chair holds the needles and pins.
Colors Create a Feeling
And these invite me
to think Spring.
Sunday night Thunderstorm-
March lions roar a day early.
When we move, I want to organize my bookshelf by color
The greens remind me of the fresh shades of spring. In the front yard I have 1 daffodil open inviting the rest to start.
Ugly day here and lots of storms last night and early this morning. Needed your colorful display of threads for a lot of reasons today. Thanks, Ruth!
Beautiful! Going to forward to the friends I sent the buttons photos to !!!
Beautiful picture, the colours and textures are like flowers in the garden…you describe it perfectly, I just filled up a new thread rack and its a thing of beauty.
cool and colorful shot! Wish I had some idea of how to sew…
