I still think the most under-reported, most holy shit tech story of the last 5+ years is how good e-bikes have gotten and how much more affordable a decent e-bike has become.

E-cars and trucks are a nice change but mostly meh. E-bikes, tho? They are magic.

They deserve subsidies and way more press attention.

NatureMC, 1 year ago to embroidery

I hated homework in #needlework at school. Now I have to #embroider my name until our International #Embroidery Festival. Our embroidery club displays a big board with the first names of all members. Almost all of them embroider traditional patterns in cross stitch. I have to be stubborn again and immortalise myself in #moss. The preparations for #stitching #moss. (order of steps in AltText) @embroidery #textileArts #FrenchKnots #inspiredByNature

Step 2: I cut paper shapes of the places where the moss should be three-dimensionally and thick.
A choice of green felts and fabric rests. I use them for upholstering the stitches and have to cut forms with the help of my paper shapes.
Step 1: I draw the layout free hand on white embroidery fabric. I will fill the curves of the letters of Petra with moss, as well as some spots around them.
