Title: The THREAD thread: Discuss the tailoring item here!
Post by: MEGAß¥TE on July 24, 2006, 02:26:30 AM: Thread is versatile. It is a primary component in sewing and weaving. Multiple threads can combine to make string. Thread can be made out of a variety of materials. Discuss or post stories about this useful invention here!

YES.

Anyways, I've done "do it yourself" sewing jobs on several shirts I've really, really liked that had holes in them. Thanks to thread, I was able to wear these shirts for many more months.

Also, thanks to thread, I actually have shirts to wear. Huh.

Title: Thread.
Post by: DeadAwake on July 24, 2006, 02:30:33 PM: Thread is not a material; it's a method of storage. The customer doesn't want a drill; he wants a hole.

Post by: Markio on July 24, 2006, 03:31:53 PM: Using an old soccer jersey and a needle and thread and cotton from an old plushie I got once, I made my sister a pillow for her birthday! But my mom said I did it wrong and that it would work better if she used her sewing machine. But she never did, so the pillow was ultimately discarded.

Post by: bobman37 on July 24, 2006, 04:35:22 PM: I am a fan of cross stitching. I am currently working on a big lion that I started like 6 years ago. It's fun for a while and then I get sick of it and don't see it again for something like 2 years, then find it again and I'm like "Hey I never finished that thing!" etc etc.

Post by: Luigison on July 24, 2006, 10:30:31 PM: My grandma taught me to crochet when I was a kid. I've also sewed up seams and on buttons. In high school I signed up for a home ec. class, but was taken out of it by the principal because I was the only male there. I hate such sexism, but that's for the angst thread. I wanted to learn how to cook, sew, etc.
I also wouldn't have minded getting to know some of the girls.

I recently learned how to sew with a sewing machine. I taught myself how to embroider about 3 years ago from a book. I don't really like to hem things and the such. Sewing machines are easier and embroidery is fun. As for me, I love the backstitch. I've tried to knit, but I failed terribly.
