More threads

This is what I mean by a large selection of threads that I keep at home.

What really annoys me are the numbers of the Gütermann's threads - no order whatsoever, except for the white (800) and black (000). The rest is totally randomly distributed. Would it be so difficult to have them numbered in order?

The basics

Since I love both photography as well as sewing, I'll post lots of photos here. And I'll start with the basics - the sewing threads. I usually keep quite a large collection at home of all possible colours so that I can always find the appropriate one without running to the store first. Quite handy if I decide to start sewing in the middle of the night.

Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog!

As the title suggests, this will be a blog about the stuff that I make in my spare time. Originally I wanted it to be a sewing blog but then I realized that I do so much more that I decided to make it a bit more general. I'll try to post a lot of photos - some will be descriptive, some will be very artistic. I might even add a tutorial now and then.

Mostly, I'll write about sewing clothes, curtains, bags, or an occasional penguin. I probably won't post as often as I would like to - but then again, I may dig up some of my older stuff.

Enough for now. Enjoy it and I hope that reading this blog will inspire you to do something for yourself.
